been a while so some updates

decided it was time to fix the air con and get the radiator removed. Sadly while in the process of removing the air con rad I realised why sometimes the car was getting warmer than it should have been. Yup, the normal coolant radiator was gubbed. The fins in the lower half of the rad were gone, completely. I could see through the darned thing! Wasn't happy. Notice also the huge bend in the cross frame support. That has now been fixed with some nifty foot work.

Busted rad in situ
original busted coolant rad notice the lower half is missing all the fins and the bent crossmember

New rad (2nd hand actually but look at the condition of it ) before placing
new radiator before attaching to the car

Air con rad also to be fitted and the charge cooler pre-rad hopefully same time. Don't hold your breath lol.

Later
