Chris Haines Posted January 6, 2010 Report Share Posted January 6, 2010 i am tryin to see if anyone has used a radiator out of any other make/model vehicles. it is for my 70 521 L16.... i plan on tryna get mine fixed first. just didnt know if anyone has already tackled this kinda problem and could help narrow down my search. (like which vehicles to look for at a salvage yard) as always thanks for any help. Quote Link to comment

420n620 Posted January 6, 2010 Report Share Posted January 6, 2010 well I don't if you want to fix it yourself to save some money or have someone else do it so I'll wait and see what you decide to do. I started repairing my own radiators over 30 year ago because I knew I'd be screwing around with cars/trucks with radiator problems and glad I did learn how to fix them, saves down time, money and I've made a few bucks to boot. It's pretty easy once you have done a few. GL Quote Link to comment
