Radiator-Ford 600

We just pulled the sheet metal of our project Ford 600 and noticed a small leak in the bottom corner of the radiator. Probably not gushing fluid, looks like very slow weep.

Do you get these repaired or replaced typically? Top and bottom tanks look like in real good shape.
thanks in advance, MODAY
 
Sounds like its easily repaired. New aftermarket radiators, you have to be careful with quality and fit. Its wise to repair, clean, or re-core an original if at all possible. Not as many radiator shops around as there once was, but this would be typical work for any reputable radiator shop.
 
Depending on where exactly it is most can be repaired. If you have a radiator shop in your are that is the best place to take it and ask questions.

But if your like I am there are no radiator shop around so I fix my own. A simple torch and some flux and acid core solder and a very good cleaning before you solder it up.
 
It looks like it's been ran awhile like there and just a weeping spot...that corner of the radiator looks damaged more than anything. I'll look around for a shop. I'm in SE Michigan with the largest city near me being Ann Arbor....should be something on the web.
It's probably been ran like this for year but my kid plans on driving this for "take your tractor to school" day and in parades, so I want it safe.

thanks, MODAY
