Lower radiator repair
Hi
I have started to break down my NC30 1989. I have removed the 2 radiators the top on is in great nick but the lower rad looks fine it is working ok but when i start to clean it up the fins in one corner are falling off so much so that there is a hole about the size of a 10 pence peice. Can i get the finns replaced or is it just worth looking out for one in better condition. Would anyone know of a radiator repair shop ????? any advice would be great.

Re: Lower radiator repair
I looked for one in decent condition for ages, but in my experience I didn't find any that were in better condition than the totally shagged one I already had. In the end I got it reconditioned (all fins replaced and new core).
But that was in Derbyshire, not sure if it's too far from you?

Re: Lower radiator repair
Cheers thought you could do that. The rad is over 20 years old but most of it is in good nick . How much did it cost you and how repaired it.

They re-cored it and put in completely new fins. I'll have to check the price.
