RE: Radiator/Caliper Guide pin sources

["Hussey, Dan" <husseyd@rayovac.com>]

Try to get a MODINE all brass radiator.  Very good and slightly larger
(although will fit).  Can be had from many sources like NAPA (I think),
maybee Pep Boys.  I think Imparts also sells them.  A bit better cooling
capacity too.

I think they are like $250, new.

Later,
Dan
