Hello to all, first post on this site. I'm building an Oakland (made before Pontiac) with a 401 4 speed and 9'' rear. Almost on the road and in need of a radiator made for the car. I tried to have the original reworked but no luck. Anyone know of a good place in the lower Michigan area. Any leeds greatly appreciated. Thanks from the frozen wasteland, leading the nation in unemployment, uptight state that is Michigan. 27oakland
Bit of a drive,100 mi, but there's a good custom radiator builder in Whitehall. Last I knew an aluminum radiator from him was around $400. You can take your old radiator or custom dimensions and he'll build from that. If your interested I'll PM you his phone #
There is a place in grand rapids called radiator hospital , they used to sponsor my race car , they are some good guys .I would give them a call they've helped me out a few times. If they can't pm me back i can find you another number.
Thanks for the info if I cant locate something closer I wouldn't be opposed to making the trek for something worthwhile.
Hey phat rat a 100mi road trip would be fine with me. Please send me the info and I will try and contact him on monday. Thanks
Nope not as much going on the west side of the state. I think were going to have to start one of are own. Theres like 10 or so of us on the west side of the state.
Well I'm a bit late on this one, but welcome Steve! When you and I first talked 2 years ago I think I mentioned this place, glad you made it. Hope things go well with the Oakland and look forward to some progress pics. Mike
