A month or two ago I had my radiator done at a local radiator shop. I took it in, told them what to look for(it was leaking from the bottom seam)and I got it back a couple of days later.
They dipped the radiator in solution, found all weakpoints, braised with brass, tested and repainted black.
I'm super happy with the way it turned out. They removed both top and bottom caps, and resealed like new.
My 1500 is cool, for under $100.00
