The Saturn thanks you all for your support.
$379 gets a new radiator, water pump, the CORRECT thermostat, new hoses, and an antifreeze fill up.

SL1 keeps me toasty now, and leaketh not. I will not be trading her in.

She thanks all of you for your support.

Vrrooom.

2. Ted's Radiator Shop in Owosso Michigan.
Ted looks like somebody's grandpa, which he is. AND he came in on a day he's normally closed to finish the job (Saturday).

Saturn wanted $350 for just the RADIATOR as a PART. Even the parts guy told me I should get it done somewhere else.

4. Ted makes a lot of money rehabbing old tractor radiators.
Edited on Mon Dec-03-07 09:12 AM by Tyler Durden
Seems there are a ton still in use, and a ton in the hands of local collectors. He had 3 HUGE "Baker" radiators he said were not made since the 50's in his shop; he was rebuilding them. I said I hoped he made a ton of money of MONEY off of them. He smiled.
