        Nice job Andy. That radiator looks familiar.

            Tony, nice picture. Those marks are depressions in the radiator metal. The only reason they look like a raised area is due to the thick paint buildup.

                I hear you guys and the oval marks are now in the plates. We re-created the clamp markings based on original samples however there was no two alike. Sometimes the filler metal (cladding) would pile up around the oval, and sometimes not. We'll see how it goes. td
