I live near Cedar Rapids. We used to have a radaitor shop until the river flooded a few years ago. Does anyone know a good radiator shop in Iowa or western IL? Thanks Pastor Mike ------------- It is great being a disciple of Jesus! 1950 WD, 1957 D17...retired in Iowa, |

There is one in Knoxville. I would think there would be one by Cedar Rapids.

| If you are looking to get one cleaned up and miner repairs there is one in Kalona, Ia (Redigers I think) and one in Washington called Ross Auto. For reconstruction or major repairs there is Advanced Radiator in Burlington, Ia. They could build you one if needed. There has to be one in Iowa City but I don't know of one. |

I think Car Quest in Vinton still does it. Cottrell used to do it, but I think they bought him out. You can always give them a call. AaronSEIA

I got a hose and a little soap!!!! This is #2 of 3 I have to get done in a short time. Gotta love 8' by 7 1/2' radiators They will make a man out of you  I gotta get pics of the 190xt when we lay it down and drop it in the tank. YES we have a tank that will fit the whole thing. We aint no rednecks with a pepper shaker under the shade tree  My motto is if it will fit in the door I will work on it, If it dont fit in the door Ill do it outside ------------- 50 B 38?
