   Well I finally got the d17 gasser fired up.  Seems to run good.  i got it blown up and never really ran it before the rebuild.  It didnt take long to figure out the radiator was leaking near the top seam on the front after filling it with coolant(no pressure).  The whole radiator has seen better days.  I priced some and my jaw hit the floor.  The cheapest i could find was $350 and one was near $650.  Anyone got any cheaper alternatives.  Would like to stay original.  I will not even try to repair this radiator.  I drained all the coolant out and re-bottled it till i get something different.  I figured id just fill it up with water as that is cheaper for now.  Cant really afford a new radiator at that price now, but ill be making an investment nearing winter deffinately.

	I have seen them on Ebay, for I thought I was going to need one but didn't. It is worth a look.
