[Rovernet] P6 parts for new owner

[Steve Manwell]

Bob,

Looking back at your original email in this thread, I see that there 
were several other things you were looking for and repairing on the car 
-- what is the status on those?

I agree with Lance's comment that re-coring is probably the best bet for 
your radiator.  I don't think there are any new or NOS ones in North 
America.

When I had the radiator re-cored which literally doubled the surface volume, my baby has run cool as a cucumber ever since.
