Don't tell Frank, but I bought a Chinese aluminum crossflow radiator on eba=
y a couple of years ago for $145.95 shipped to my door.=C2=A0 Fit perfectly=
 and worked properly.=C2=A0 The only thing I didn't like was that the faste=
ners were metric (ewww).=C2=A0=20

I decided to sell the car a year after installing the radiator and listed i=
t on Craigslist. =C2=A0I guy from St. Louis, MO flew up here, counted out a=
 pile of hundred dollar bills, and drove the car home - in January! =C2=A0L=

<div>Ahhh fond memories .</div>

<div>The Philly MG club swap meet, import Carlisle &amp; sprite spree AND t=
he Infamous LBC rallys.</div>

<div>( and a minister for a navigator......)</div>

<div>And the early years of OSHIT.&nbsp; hey! I have the tattoo to prove it=
!&nbsp; &nbsp;Right Larry..."OUCH"....every time you walked by.</div>

<div>Racing Frank to the Lancaster healey meet....we had to be the 2 loudes=
t LBC'S showing up.&nbsp; Daniel bringing big rear spridget brakes to Ameri=
ca as carry on luggage....</div>

<div>IT WAS ONE HELL OF A GOOD TIME!</div>

<div>And a very prominent part OF All it was Frank.</div>

<div>* dam it actually brings a year to my eyes*</div>

<div>And who could forget "zap screws and liquid nails".</div>

<div>Carlisle was a yearly pilgrimage to get Frank wet.&nbsp; &nbsp;Muddy s=
hoes, meets under the bleachers and more!</div>

<div>Funny how it seems like an eternity ago...</div>

<div>Yes Carlisle has changed over and over.&nbsp; &nbsp;But!&nbsp; The mem=
ories.&nbsp; &nbsp;The people who are no longer with us.&nbsp; &nbsp;They m=
ay be gone, but at least at my garage, they are not forgotten.</div>

<div>Chuck</div>

<div>See you at Carlisle....what ever the weather provides.</div>

<div>Probably not going to rain....just to spite Frank.</div>
