I need to remove the steel radiator support - the rectangular steel "frame" with the two ears that bolt to the frame on my "63 Avanti in order to strip and paint it. How do you get it out? Did they build the car around it? If I loosen body bolts going way back can I lift the body enough to slip the "ears" out?
And does anyone have an Avanti radiator in very good condition for sale? Mine needs a new core - I've been quoted in the $275 range. Sound right? Lastly, does anyone know anything about Thunderbird radiator interchangeability with Avanti?
Thanks, Dennis
