Hope you got home Ok

Most towns have a company that will rebuild your rad or can build one from scratch given dimensions. See if anyone local can suggest or look through yellow pages etc...

Hi all i have done a bit of research
Radicool appear to no longer exist but thanks big jeep
Plastic header ones are about £170 delivered
the first quote from a guy down near staplehurst was £400 for a made up one that seems a bit steep
will try the place over in sittingbourne on Thursday
