fter an order was placed in November....look what finally showed up!  4 days in shipping did this with (per UPS) 4 hand offs...one would THINK that they might be more careful.....nah lets toss it around a bt more....monkeys...also for almost $800 you'd think a better packaging system could be used....

Visiual inspection showed some fins tweaked and a small straight blade was used to re-align as best I could.  I plan a quick pressure test to assure not damaged.

 Any damage to the radiator? Looks to be ok in the pic. Still the shipping companies need to handle things alot more carefully! 

Like I said doesn't LOOK so, but a quick pressure test will confirm.  Summit has already contacted me after the negative review I left...they can replace or refund...LOL...I already waited 6 months...I don't have 6 more for a likley same result.  This was the ONLY vendor for a full AL rad...I can't have plastic tanks...I need to weld to 'em.

It's cool having tilt forward fenders and hood. It's the best :thumb1:.

 

Are you planning on driving out west to Michael Nelson's place in Idaho when this truck is done? I would drive East to go see it for sure. Mopar Man lets visitors camp on his property.

I plan on doing a drive to visit some friends on the left coast when he's finished.

I would love to see that truck when its done. I'm going to be heading east to Pigeon Forge TN. To bad I can't cross paths with you and see it sooner. I gather I'll just have to be patient. :kick:

 

swing thru MN on the way!  :lol:

 

Good news is I have a deadline with my painter.  I am vehicle #4...so I have about 2 years to get it to him.  So in 3 I should be on the road.

We will be crossing paths hopefully and I will get to see it and meet up :thumb1:. Maybe it will get some others interested too.
