After chasing pin hole leaks in the radiator all last year, pulled the radiator out of the car.
This is a True Bolt Together Tank Style Radiator.
And with a Suggestion of Origin from a Pipeliner Friend, its from a WW2 era Hobart Welder.
After getting it out, started the disassembly.
Now I bought this radiator at a swap meet 15+ years ago, and it was for another project that never got started.
So when I pulled the top tank off, it was Surprise City of ALL the Sluge and Gunk in it.
Now I will admit that some of it was the Stop Leak I used a 3 occasions to get it back home.
But now we know what caused some of the Over Heating Issues, especially in city, rush hour traffic.
So there is some almost 80 years of "Stuff, spelled Shit !" In there !! This is the bottom tank.
So a new core is going to be made, and in 2-3 weeks, it will be here, this will give me time to clean up the top and bottom tanks.
