Tomorrow gets a new rad!

Made it 100km north for a car show. Stopped, and see Dex-Cool dripping under car. Took a good look, damn plastic tank on Right side of rad cracked. So JB weld and a loose rad cap kept 100% of fluid in it to get home. But rather be safe then sorry. So New rad goes in with Tstat and coolant .
