Walker sells 32 radiators ... that are already 2 inches shorter.

Maybe sell yours and buy one of theirs

 

i already have over 500 in this one and the walkers look modern. mines real 32

 

You MEAN the tanks are 80 years old.
The core is newer

 

Try Luckys shop. He's on the hamb somewhere

 

Not sure if this is something a normal radiator shop can do, but you might start there. Also, maybe call the Br***works and run it by them to see if they can modify it.

It sounds like the kinda job any reasonable radiator shop could handle with ease.
Good luck with the few names that have been recommended to you
Cheers.

 

Thanks,....I'm filing those names for future reference !!!!! REAL radiator shops are becoming an endangered species, it seems......

I bet they are especially endangered in California with it's strict laws regarding anything environmental. I'm sure radiator shops work with some caustic or otherwise toxic chemicals, and every State it trying to get those companies out of business.

Another thing that is putting them in a bad way is the advent of all the plastic radiators in newer cars. $150 gets you a new one in the box at AutoZone and the old one gets tossed in the dumpster.

Hi Billy,
Rick's radiator in Azusa (626) 967-7518 is a good guy. I need to shorten mine also, but in my case it's not worth it since it's a modern radiator to begin with.
According to Rick, it takes most of a day to shorten one. Probably gonna cost you 4 or 5 bills.
I decided to order a new one hoping I can sell the stocker to recoup some of the cost.

I don't know if a radiator can be shortened,,a new core may be required! HRP
