[DeTomaso] Straightening Radiator Condenser Fins

[Charles Engles]

Dear Mike,

            I have had a conventional tool to straighten the radiator fins
for years and I have used it a handful of times.  It does not produce a
"like new" result, but it does reduce the "dent" in the fins and preserves a
bit more function.  

                        Warmest regards, Chuck Engles

After 15 years knocking around up in my garage attic, the fins on the back
of my stock radiator condenser have become quite mashed.  Is it worth trying
to straighten them out?  I've ordered a rad fin straightening tool from
Amazon but not sure if it will work that well.

 

Thanks, Mike T.
