Got the last thing I need before it goes back on the road. A new radiator, from another WNY based company  
[www.wizardcooling.com](http://www.wizardcooling.com)  
Very trick, clean welds, and heavy duty. Scott and the gang do some real nice work. Custom built to your requirements :tup:

I removed the old radiator and lines tonight. I have to reroute some wiring then can install and reassemble tomorrow.

Radiator is in. Gorgeous piece of work from Wizard Cooling [www.wizardcooling.com](http://www.wizardcooling.com)  
(Excuse the fingerprints) 🙂

Lined right up to the factory holes and fit in the alloted space. Just got to run the tranny lines, connect the fans, and fill her up

Counting down the days to get her out.  
Just got to finish a few little electrical issues, replace the power steering pump, alignment, and inspection.

If all goes well, on the road next weekend :carnut

Other than that got it running and idling. Sounds bad ass! Brakes work, radiator work…

If the power steering pump didn’t blow the seals, I’d almost be in business.

IT’S ALIVE!!!

Pauly came over and helped finish up some loose ends today.

Took it for a ride around 6 blocks. Bad ass!

Got tons of thumbs ups.

Just need to get it aligned and inspected and drive it around a bit to make sure everything is good.

Going to clean it up and get some pics finally
