    ALUMINUM RADIATOR.

    The 87 5th AVE 318 was running hot (very hot) after driving for a while in any outside temperature this summer. The problem came on over about 200 miles. All indications pointed to a clogged original radiator. One option was a new $130 3 core aluminum radiator. Another option was to have the...

    Good morning Mopar people.

    These cars were very inexpensive when I got a license to drive in 74. A few hundred dollars would get a clean used mid-sixties car that needed only points to run so it could be put into service. As a result, I had most of the American cars of the sixties and seventies. Subcompacts, compacts...
