Re: 62 to 65 radiators

[Jimmy Peavy <peaver63@xxxxxxxxx>]

I tried them once years ago. It was not a good experience.
After crating the radiator up ( I spent $25 just for material),
shipped it to them, they sent me someone else's radiator, and shipped
mine to someone else.
Then after finding mine, they sent mine back, untouched with a note
saying, they couldn't do it.
I was not happy.
I was out $25 for material, I don't remember how much for shipping,
but I do remember it was no bargain from Texas to California.
I'm glad yours works great. Mine didn't.
