Had the radiator out of 1 of my 7060's & was looking for a radiator shop to repair it. A friend suggested A to Z Radiator & A/C, Inc., 2807 E. Cook St., Springfield, IL. 217-525-2790. Those collectors within driving distance of Springfield, IL. should check it out. It's about 4 blocks west of Dirksen Parkway on the north side of Cook St. Look sharp or you'll miss it. It's just an old service station. Ask for Jack or Terry. Jack explained that about 40% of their business is agricultural.

I wish there was a quality, reliable radiator shop near here locally. All that where in business have since closed. Even then most were not quality or reliable.

If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere.
Real pullers don't have speed limits.
If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY

It's been a dying business for the last 25 or more years around here.

Oh wow, that's not too far from me. I actually had a coworker recommend A to Z to me a few years ago, I do recall. If I ever need the WD rads rebuilt, I will definitely go there.

I have been lucky for several years. We have a shop in Skowhegan, Maine that does super work and not expensive. He has done a few AC radiators for me and recored the rad. in my wife's MM Avery. Bob@allisdowneast

I used to think I was indecisive, but now I'm not sure.

I just dropped the radiator out of our Cat 55 there yesterday. I had them fix the one in my 200 last summer and was very happy with the quality of work. Andy
