or so I told myself as I parked at work this morning and a nice coolant puddle started to form under the car. Checked hoses, water pump area, nope, not it. Had to get into work so I drove across the street to the local tire/repair shop who I have good relations with. They said they would get it up on the hoist and let me know what they could find. Well, fortunately, it wasn't the waterpump... however, my creaky stock rad finally bit it in a big way, with a rupture on the side near the bottom. Great, here it is Saturday of a long weekend (here in Canadia), I have to work, car needs a rad, where the funk am I going to scare one up on short notice? Hah! I remember a car club buddy showing me his shiny new Koyo with polished CZP bracket he's saving for his engine build... yes, he's home, and willing to deal... 
So, he not only sells me his rad, but delivers it to the garage. They get it installed in under 2 hours and charge me a pittance (by garage standards). So, I pay off my buddy, he immediately orders another one from Coz.
So I win, with a performance rad package with no day ship time, my buddy gets paid and orders himself a new one, Coz gets to sell another Koyo, and the only loser is my bank account, which is pretty much used to it. Regards,
