Radiator that came on our 1931 regular. In all the junkyards we have been in over the years, we have NEVER seen such a tough looking core. It is just falling apart (and yet the rest of our tractor looked pretty good upon dismantling...for instance the head was not all rusted).

1. My husband is curious as to your ideas regarding why/what would cause it to deteriorate so badly (fins are so rotten, I can drag my pinkie finger across them and they just crumble).
2. We just thought their attempt to "fix" it was interesting. Rubber pushed into the hole at the front/bottom and the wood shim shoved into the top of the damaged tube inside the top.
We did buy a different used core to put in the Regular... but I think it would be kind of fun to use this one, because it looks like crud. Anyway, we were just curious what you all thought.
