Re: [Amc-list] Aluminum Radiators done and ready

[Wrambler242@xxxxxxxxxxx]

The top "caps" are best left to the individual to build.
I doubt the demand would be high enough to warrant them.
Individual tastes would also make these hrad to please evryone.
A piece of aluminum bent on a brake to slip fit over could be picked up at any sheet metal shop, furnace supply house. I would build one to cutom cover the thing up even with the rear edge of the core support. 
Maybe bead roll and AMC logo or some such thing into it if I had the skills.
Making the crossflow look like the factory radiator will not happen.
I will state that it is a nice piece and were I in the position to be ready for one I'd be ordering mine!
Now, where was I?
Oh yeah, Anyone want a 65 Ambassador convertible project from hell???........................
I think I try and sell it about this time every year. Don't want to miss out on posting it!
