Default It's Alive! VVG ain't got nothing on me!

Couldn't help myself. Spent the day working on the GP. It's a model J not an SJ. Original 455 though. No posi, that was not correct. Put a battery in, no crank. Climbed underneath, the trans linkage to the neutral safety switch was unbolted as was the shifter cable. Not sure why. Reattached, spun right over. Dribbled gas down the vent on the carb, barked right off, Noisy as hell. Has a nice dual exhaust running glass packs but I had to cut one side off due to a crushed pipe. No radiator so haven't run it long but I'm encouraged enough to start searching for a replacement radiator. Any suggestions for a good quality replacement?
