Default Carrier rad removal

First warm day here so I decided to take the UC rad out and get it fixed for the summer show season. It took two hours and I'm still wondering (fearing, actually) just how I'm going to get some of those nuts and bolts back on (I ain't triple jointed or twenty years old any more).

Like they say...that was fun.

Yes I know about some of those bolts are not easy to reach. On a side note I see that you have the Spare Valves and Parts case box that mounts to the mud Gard, Any chance of a close up picture of it and possible dimensions as I need to make one for my carrier

I got the rad back from the shop Thursday. Expensive but a beautiful job. I knew I was in the right place when the guy was measuring the fin and tube spacing of the original to match it exactly, and he did. Here's a few pics of the installation. Carrier is now up and running and, like most old girls, seems to like it when you spend money on them.
