A new radiator is certainly not in the works so repairs are in order.

 |
 |
The T' radiator had a mouse nest inside
|
Bottom of the tank was present but pretty destroyed | All this in one radiatior -Now there is a reason to keep the lid on! |
 |
 |
 |
Radiator neck cracks etc..
|
You can see that this had been resoldered at some point | Pretty rough.. |
 |
 |
 |
| Layout of new copper | Cleaning the cores with muriatic acid | Punching holes, they were center punched prior to help with alignment |
 |
 |
 |
| After folding | Smaller cores were fit into the originals approximatly 3/4" then soldered but I forgot to take a picture prior to fitting my new piece and I wasn't going to line up 75 cores again | Don't underestimate cleaning first, and having a new contianer of flux. |

| If this was a pressurized system the RTV wouldn't work, but I think it will be fine. | Seeing if it will hold water again. |
