Holed radiator by exhaust pipe falling off the car in front of me on the way to the first Shelby Fest

Crimped damaged tubes and repaired on roadside with Kneedit metal putty I carry in the boot.
Ran hard all day at Winton on Saturday and did 8 WOT drag runs at Heathcote park dragway on the Sunday.
I am still running the radiator with patches

Touch wood thats the only trouble I have had on the road.
Cheers,
Bryan

The Kneedit will outlast the cores in the radiator... it is a great product. As to the breakdown, well, you gotta drive em to break em and i still ain't drivin..!!
