Got an aluminum radiator out of my uncle's car that needs fixin'

Anywhere around here that is capable of fixing such a radiator? We think it has a pinhole leak in one of the tubes. Do you guys think such a repair would be less than $100? If it's gonna be more, we'll cut our losses and get a new one.

Thanks,

Ary

I dont remember exactly where it is but there is a repair shop in downtown Bburg near the police station. I think off of Draper. There is also one in Cburg near the hose house. I dont remember either name. I used the one in downtown Bburg they gave me an honest opinion on fixing mine.

Are you thinking of the one that was right behind where Doc Roberts used to be?? Are they still in operation??

No, everything in that block is empty now. The one here in c'burg right across from Wades is acutally the new location. Most thought it was another shop, but they moved there when the Doc Roberts building was bought by the town.

you will prolly have a hard time finding a place to fix an aluminum rad. Give this place a call. They do amazing stuff on motorcycle rads. Im sure they could handle what u need and the prices are good. You will have to send it to them.
