Well i need to get a new core, After 25 years of work it gave up, I took my radiator back to JJSmiths, in Sydney they did it last time, but didn't have my receipt strangely enough so we couldn't figure out the modern car it came out of which, would make it much cheaper, I have vague memories of it being from a light Toyota truck, but it's not enough , Has anyone got and experience of this, Ray

My 28, which I recently sold after 25 years had about one cm of honecomb sliced off in front of a new core that came from a Holden of some sort. Of course this was done 25 years ago by a place at Smithfield and he has retired.Still it shouldn't be a problem.

Thanks Terry, Do you remember if it was a late model Holden or 60's . The 28 is one of the tallest cores I think il have to go to a wrecker and measure up cars to find one, No one knows anything if it's not got a part number . Ray

Long time ago. I thought it was from an 80's V8 Holden. Sideways?
