I got it out already. I'll take some pictures tomorrow. Be forewarned, it's a good example of why I need to learn how to slow down and pay attention. It's probably gonna need to be re-cored after the utterly stupid way I removed the electric fan my dad and I (read- Dad) put on as a bandaid for the overheating years ago.

(Admittedly I was planning on having it recored anyway- I realize the timing and carb not being set right is probably a large part of why it overheated even before the cam and lifters started going away, but if I can add a little insurance I'd sure like to. That, or an aluminum one I'll just paint black, since a quick Google shows recoring a brass/copper rad is actually just as, if not more, expensive these days)

Ain't no fun in viewing your car as an 'investment'. Get out there and beat on it!
