M#*(@F!!(#* Is this repairable? (pin hole radiator)
I got a little ambitious with my saber saw doing a little 'fit on site' on my radiator, and it decided to do a little dance across the oh so fragile fins.
As a result:
Thats a hole, and there is another right close by that just kinda dribbles. I can solder wires all the live long day, but getting out the torch that close to the end tanks is more than I want to tackle especially since I'm on radiator number 2 and I dont want to have to buy another.
Any shops around sunshine that could turn this around by Friday afternoon? I really would like to have the car up and running again by monday.

Hell, one time I just cleaned it up half ass decent and used Ace Hardware 2 part epoxy(did the job in their parking lot as a matter of fact). It held for atleast another 6 months as my daily car until I got rid of the car.
These days Id just open the phone book first thing AM and call the rad shops near you and say "if I get this to you in the next 20 min, can yu get it done today?"
