This week I started on the radiator installation. I am using the radiator from the donor car a 94 Mustang.
Imitating William Spencer's radiator protector screen, I got a 24 X 24 expanded metal sheet from home depot. I cut it to fit and coated it with clear POR-15. I attached it with nylon mounting rods from O'Reilly's.



The next step was to mount the radiator on the frame. I immediately noticed that a plastic mount tab on the radiator interfered with the frame. So I got out my handy hand saw and cut it off.

Unfortunately, I cannot be trusted with even manual cutting tools. As the saw went through the plastic it continued into my hand. Four stitches later, I got back to work.
