hey folks, need to get a radiator recored and the guy i used before has apparently retired. can anyone recommend a good shop that does rebuilds in the los angeles metro area? preferably in the general vicinity of glendale/highland park/eagle rock/atwater/los feliz/you get the drift if you know la. thanks!
Pacific Radiators on Colorado in Glendale. They have recored 2 of my radiators so far and plan on using them again. They also clean gas tanks for cheap.
Burkes Radiator 6915 Figueroa st. Highland Park 90042 323 255-7809 I have used them a few times and always did a good job for me.
I had a 32 recored at Rick radiator 693 E Arrow Hwy Azusa, CA 91702-5802 - (626) 967-7518.very good job car runs cool. I had been looking for some one for awhile, for me this is the place to go.
update: went to burkes in highland park, no complaints. guy figured i didn't need a recore and told me so. radiator came back painted, leaks fixed, tanks and tubes blasted out and the guy even resoldered my jb welded drain petcock (which never did leak, it should be noted) at no extra charge. $50 all told. dudes are a bit odd but their work is a+.
