[AT] Farmall Cub Radiator core

[Howard Weeks]

I have had a local radiator shop here in Augusta, GA recore 3 Cub 
radiators and they got the cores from a place in Atlanta that makes the 
cores to order, i.e., number of rows and other relevant dimensions. The 
shop then puts the bottom and top tank back on, pressure tests and 
paints them.

They weren't cheap - about $350 or so as I remember.

My point is that there are shops now that can make the core to order.
