    Anything is doable with a big enough hammer. Whether or not it looks right is a whole other story.

      I would like to think an XJS 6 cyl radiator would fit, I mean the british use a different size bolt for every fastener but many of the parts seem to interchange

        I don't think so. The '88 thru '90 are supposed to interchange, but the '90-'94 radiators don't, because the later cars use a 4 liter straight six, its a whole new setup. The XJS uses the same setup as well.

            Yeah I found one for like $239 online, so not too far off. The shop ended up epoxying the hole, which should so the trick-- the damage is strange to describe, but it's a good example of something that could have been repaired rather than replaced. I'm getting her back tomorrow w/ fresh rear brakes, and tires on all 4 corners.

                You violated the shit out of that fence,


                Also, I got air conditioning today, just in time for the cold weather!!! There was just no belt driving the compressor, which in retrospect, I probably should've seen that earlier than, say, today.

                  Summit Racing and Jegs and probably a lot of other suppliers probably have a "universal" aluminum radiator that might work for you for cheaper than that. Haha.

                  Then you'd have the added bonus of racekor parts.

                    I want racekor parts pretty bad, but there's nothing out there for this thing, which I knew before getting this one. I'm banking on this epoxy working because I have about $6 in the entire world, so yeah, that's the issue.

                      I understand man...that's why I'm on here instead of working on things. Haha.

                        • Got the bucket back today from the shop, some success, and some not-success.

                          Got my A/C working, turns out there was just no belt on the compressor. However, the reason for that is that the compressor is loud as fuck all. It's still scraping in the rear too, even with new pads and rotors. The new tires are nice. I went down to 225/45 this time. I found out that my RR u-joint is shot and that most of my hub bearings are shot, also. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

                              Yeah, everything is expensive on this thing. I've gotten pretty good with these cars though, so I can at least save on labor on most things.


                              The epoxy worked wonders on the radiator, too. Thank you based god.
