    OER RADIATORS - BUYER BEWARE?

    You got a defective rad, obviously. However I bought the same but from Classic Industries. The radiators are made by US Radiator which is the OER brand. Mine was perfect and cools great. I got the 3 row since 4 row in copper can sometimes actually block air flow.

Black smoke started billowing before I could grab the water hose. Got it...

    Brake noise only when turning

    Tapered roller bearings should be slightly loose as compared to tight. You have to disassemble and physically inspect each bearing to determine if anything is wrong with them. Otherwise CPP does use China bearings. I doubt your issue is with bearings, because bad bearing noise would not go away...

    I would guess $100 each if in near new looking condition, more with wheels. Some may want them for show purposes and some may not care about age. their choice as long as you disclose the age

    anyone know of a reputable paint shop that can color match custom paint without a code?

    Rant: I hate chrysler

    All cars can and do have some real bitch things to fix. I use to enjoy working on my own cars when I was younger, not any longer. All I can say is if it's that miserable of a job for you, you need to hire it out to an experienced shop
