I cut my teeth "rodding" radiator's. Learned all about soldering with an acetylene torch and the whole bit, back when radiators could still be repaired.
*snif* I miss my grandpa.
Now they have plastic and fiberglass on them, making repair almost impossible.
Because if you try to remove the plastic 'carrier', they fall apart.
I'll tell you radiators sure are different from when I used to work on them. Look like they're all plastic like the rest of the car now adays.
