I have a 61 with an aluminum radiator that is clean and does not need replacing. Recently it has developed some pinhole leaks in the radiator itself (coolant not yet hitting garage floor). Short of a new Dewitts replacement, I'm looking for a "stop leak" product that could seal these small holes, but without the fear that the cooling system would become restricted and/or blocked like Barrs Leak allegedly does. Any thoughts.............

Re: 61 aluminum radiator repair
I also agree. I would not even attempt to repair a 63 year old aluminum radiator if I planned to drive the car. DeWitts reproduction is the only way to go. And, be thankful that the DeWitts is available. I never though that any of these 1960-72 aluminum radiators would ever be reproduced (until Tom DeWitt came around).In Appreciation of John Hinckley- Top
