    New Cold Case Radiator in the '66 Newport

    The quality and fit and finish seems very nice. I'm happy with the purchase and it looks like its going to keep the car 5-10 degrees cooler which is what I was after.

    New Cold Case Radiator in the '66 Newport

    No, one mounting hole was slightly off so I just used a drill bit to widen it out a little but. Also the trans cooler line fittings were a slightly different thread size so I had to get new fittings to screw into the bottom to connect the trans cooler lines. Last thing was the fan shroud...

    New Cold Case Radiator in the '66 Newport

    Last night I installed a new direct fit Cold Case aluminum radiator in my Newport. I was having some trouble with it getting warmer than I'd like during these warm months in Oregon. I will be putting the fan shroud back on tonight. I did not have the necessary hardware to do it last night. Its...

    The new/used Chrysler center caps arrived today. A little 0000 steel wool and some chrome wheel cleaner shined them up before I slapped them on. Very much like this look. Now to figure out a few lighting issues and get some new wiper blades.

    Drove the Newport about 30 min home. Seemed to run okay. A hesitation on initial throttle tip in. Some slight surging when cruising along at 55-60 mph. Brakes felt good. Pretty sure a good tune up and some fresh fuel and it’ll be better. The gentlemen I bought it from hadnt really driven it much.
