I am still waiting on the paint shop.(shop #2) 2 1/2 years is just stupid.

WOW!! That's high!

For that kind of coin I would have put a crossflow aluminum rad!

Yeh, I don't know why I did it. I remember looking for an aluminum radiator but at the time I don't think there was much to chose from.

Next time you need an aluminum rad you may want to check these guys out:

Hey John

Have you used those cfr rads before? They seem to be the cheapest on the market that I have seen. Just wondering of their quality? I believe that my stock rad is a 19". Is that measured from the fins or total outside? Just wondering which one would work best for my 66.
