    Radiator decision time

    My dad forgot to add anti freeze for a few years in his 34 ford. Its a street rod and a four door and i hate it. The aluminum radiator just rotted out from the inside. I was doing a tune up and boom a good hole in the bottom tank. what a nightmare that was, with the 500 caddy and ac.
