Radiator

[Nick Bombini]

Was the radiator painted od or was it black in stock CCKWs? I just recieved my radiator back from the radiator shop and they have painted it black so I was wondering if I should leave it be or paint it od before I reinstall it.

I was also wondering what radiator caps you guys use. The one that I posted pictures of is no longer good except as a collectors piece as it is part of the truck's history.

Thanks,
Nick

Guys,
I bought some radiator caps from Ross (lendlease). The things look great as does the box. If you need a cap, ask Ross, you won't be disappointed

Be careful when painting your radiators, the cooling fins need to be exposed for the purpose of cooling. Too much paint covering the fins may act as an insulator and affect the cooling process.
