Radiator repair in Florida

Post by PDGx » Sat Feb 16, 2019 11:08 am

Has anyone found a radiator shop in central Florida that HAS either repaired or re-cored a round tube T radiator for you ?

Yea I know it will cost almost as much as a new one, but I don’t want the old one taking up shelf space. :P

So far, all shops have turned me down.

Ed’s radiator service if you want to try. In Seminole county close to Sanford airport. Does old tractors and such. Don’t let his shop scare you. Good man.

You have no idea on the garage until you see or meet Ed. He repaired my old tt radiator and fixed all leaks. I will admit I eventually replaced it with a new one as it just didn’t transfer heat well anymore. I did not ask Ed to core it but maybe I should have. Be patient as will will have to show up and meet him. He did quick work once he looked at it and was not expensive. He doesn’t do volume from what I can tell. Again, just good people. Where is your tt wrecker in CF? TS

We’re about 20 mi west of Clermont.
