Glad to see it solved your heating issues. Bummer about fitment. Fun fact, my C20 came with a Griffin radiator in it and I knew nothing about them until I watched this video. Thanks man!
Yea it’s bit irritating but it’s running cool so Iam happy. I wouldn’t turn down a care package from cold case though.. hahaha. I’ve used Griffin and northern rads before, good stuff. That’s a good bonus that your truck came with one.
@@LeftForDeadGarage I reached out to them about a radiator for one of my projects once. They said sure we help out cut you a deal on them what do you need. I told them and never heard anything back so I guess they're not interested. Might not be interested in you now either since it was a little bit rough for them. 🤣
@@MyLegacyGarage Hello! I checked into this. We asked you to send us a proposal and we never received anything. If you want to send that over to sales@coldcaseradiators.com I will take a look. Thanks for the interest.
Hey LFD. That's a good-looking rad. $400.00 is about standard for a rad. I guess you could sand it down and paint it black if you wanted. Thanks for sharing.🍁👍👍
LFD, Thank you for posting your install and review. I just dropped $500 for a Cold Case for my truck. I agree that it should have fit better but I also think that is was cool that CCR reached out to your channel about it. Makes me feel better about my purchase! Also, I don't care for the shine either, Lol.
They did reach out but that’s about as far as it went. I emailed pictures to the tech guy his suggestions were exactly what it says not to do on the warranty lol. Thanks for watching!!
@@LeftForDeadGarage My Father owned my first 64 Catalina. He gave it to me for my 16th birthday. Wisconsin winters destroyed her. I bought this Catalina few years ago from South Carolina. Since I have drove it a couple thousand miles unrestored. I have slowly replaced almost all the damaged parts with Nos Parts. Replaced weatherstripping and replaced the Gas tank. Completely rewired the car from headlights to taillights. Currently having the motor rebuilt by Moffitt's machine shop. Known John my whole life. Best Machine Shop for Old School Motors. After the Motor gets Back Radiator and Transmission is Next. Thanks for posting this Information. Big help to me on my decision.
Glad it's cooling better. I had cooling issues also. During the summer I was getting 220/230 degrees. I removed the stock 4 blade fan and put in a clutch fan. Also installed a 7 blade fan and made a fan shroud. So far it stays at 190. Thinking of going with a 160 thermostat. We'll see what happens this summer and 110 temperatures. I could definitely see you were Not a happy camper.
At the time that was the only “quality” direct fit radiator I could find. The back order issues in the hotrod world seems to never end. I did talk to cold case and i was told to cut it but they didn’t directly tell me to do that. Warranty does state any modifications will void it. So I guess I’ll void the warranty video. Thanks for watching and also thanks for subbing, Iam going to go check out that VW playlist you have now.

I don’t mind the cost of a quality piece, especially a very important piece to the puzzle but the fitment didn’t match the cost.

Great video as always, and bright shiny and new, when there should be something on it. (grease, rust, something!)Thanks for sharing.
I thought about looking into having it anodized black, but it’s already installed and Iam driving it lol. Thanks for watching Roy.
I got a 1964 Pontiac Catalina.
Thanks for posting this.
That’s cool, is it something you’ve had for a while?

That’s pretty cool, sounds like we’re are doing similar builds. Little as we go kinda thing.
Your driving and enjoying it. That’s what it’s all about. You can fab some custom mounts later. Ride is looking good👍
My fan sensors don’t seem to be accurate, I might try putting it in the head instead of the intake, great video buddy 👊🏼👍🤙🏻 sounds great 👍
I think mine is some eBay sensor.

Always a great video when it starts with a burn out 🔥🔥🔥👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼
Hit that tank with some 400 grit. Glad it’s brought the temperature down.
Neglect and time will bring it right around lol.
awesome looking car mate
Thanks, I appreciate you watching. When I get a second I’ll have to go check out your truck videos.
@@LeftForDeadGarage I really appreciate that mate. Car community stick together.
Absolutely, I had no clue there was such a community on UA-cam when I started the channel.
For sure mate. To be honest neither did I just started growing and chatting with others
I feel the same way, if it's too shiny I don't want it. To much maintenance.
I see me attacking it with scotchbright lol
All I can think is fuck that thing is shiny be careful man. I dont like buying parts for my stuff if it dont have a lick of rust on it
Haha I should left it laying in the yard for a week or two. Dial back the shine a bit lol
New subscriber, how bout a return??? You have some good stuff going on here, keep up the good work!!
