[DeTomaso] Radiator Dilemma

Tue Aug 9 18:04:41 EDT 2016

I know I am in the minority on the radiator subject.  I had probably two hall radiator over the years. With Mariah fans and even a third suction fan.  Depending on where you live and drive they do or do not work.  In Phoenix they do not work.  Ron Davis does.
