Take a look at the very good work performed. Seems like well worth the money!

Spring is here....work is starting...

Work had to start with refurbishing the radiator. This way the car can be driven in order to fix some more stuff...

So...back in December I knew that the radiator was leaking. I agreed with a company that specializes in repairing them that we keep the frame and we weld a brand new radiator inside. This is a bit expensive solution but I am having high hopes! You can take a look at the terrible condition of the radiator here...




As you can see it is obvious where the leak is (somewhere middle top) as you can see the watermarks all the way down. I will put a picture when it is fixed for comparison (I trust it will look like brand new when fixed).

Also, the rubbers that the radiator was standing were pretty much worn out. So I decided to change those too. The work was done yesterday and it costed me 5e plus 2 cuts on both index fingers...way to go! At least the result looked good!



I should be receiving the refurbished radiator within this coming week. I trust it will seat nicely in the new rubber. I will keep you posted in the next weeks as more work will be done. I was inactive due to weather conditions but slowly I am picking up speed in order to have her on the road by June!
