Howdy all,
Looks like I am starting to get some leaking in the bottom of my radiator right by the seam between the fins and the bottom tank.  I can't see where it is coming from, but it is getting wet, and getting worse.  Where should I start looking for a replacement.  Should I consider repair from a local shop? 

Thanks for your advice.
John

That's the first step and if beyond repair have it recored.A decent shop will have quality supplier and you'll have a radiator that out lasts you.


PS don't whine about the cost

6080's are pretty easy to pull the rad. Just take it to a shop to have it done.

Yep.  No replacements available aftermarket.  Best to get your rad re-cored.  Should be good for another 30 years.
