I made my first step into weight reduction....by accident.

I orded a new rad for the Caprice since the one is leaking. So Koll and I took it out and realized that what I pulled out looked ot be a copper with metal side tanks, while the one going in is aluminum with plastic side tanks...a much lighter radiator.
Id say almost 20 lbs off the front end.
