[Ole]

Thanks again for your suggestions Richard. My mechanic was the one that spoke to Newell and I believe the quote of $5k was just for the radiator. The parts department said they were 2 months out. I’ve got a call into them myself to find out exactly what it would costs for them to do all the work. I also spoke to Larry yesterday, whom like you, has a wealth of knowledge regarding newell radiators. He told me he needed specifics as to the size and wether I would need the charger cooler also which I’m not sure I do. He said he’s short handed and 3-4 months out. I’m in a dilemma. I had planned to drive it from Chicago to Tampa next week but it’s probably not a good idea now if the radiator has a leak. The mechanic said he thought it was possible if I refilled the coolant as I went but I think that’s just a nightmare waiting to happen. Anyway, I appreciate your help again and I’ll keep you all posted as to the conclusion of this story.
