Ok, i tore the front end off the other day. I put all the parts in the garage and forgot about them while i was drilling out spot welds and hacking away with the sawzall.

Yesterday i checked out the radiator. Although it doesnt leak any fluid and made a 2+ hour trip in 95 deg weather the needle never left the middle of the gauge on the dash.

Check out the pics and tell me what you think.

Pic 1 is of the drivers side. Notice how it differs from pic 2 in that it seems smashed in a bit more. There was no bent cooling tubes though.

Different view of drivers side of radiator.

Bulletproof. However I suspect diminished flow on the return side.
