Auction Won - Name That Tool
I was bidding at an auction today and won two of these. See attached photo. The bid title described the items, but no other details were in the descriptions. After a quick search on my phone to confirm, I put in the initial bid on both at $4 each. No idea why I bid anything, but to my surprise I won both. Yep, for a total of $8.
I had to go into my way back machine to even remember seeing one while dropping something off for repair and going in the shop to watch the process a bit. Anyway, I thought it would be interesting to see how many other people know what these are.

A wild guess - I've seen an apparatus that looks similar to this that's used for steam bending wood, like what you'd use to make wood wheels.

Looks like a complex version of a leaf buggy-spring spreader. The one Dad had for Model A Fords was very simple.

Well, don't feel bad, I didn't know either until I read the description title and confirmed online. Here you go....
120 100152 Radiator Puller - Radiator Puller 1 $3.00 $0.45 $0.25 $3.70 123 100152 Radiator Puller - Radiator Puller 1 $3.00 $0.45 $0.25 $3.70 124 100152 Rolling Cart/Parts - Rolling Cart/Parts 1 $3.00 $0.45 $0.25 $3.70 I was a little off on price, $3.00 plus 15% auction fee and tax was $3.70 each. I also won a tool cart loaded with fittings/tools/radiator caps/ect for another $3.70. You can see one of these radiator pullers in action in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w36zxJWCgGk I just loaded them onto my trailer an hour ago and it took about all I had to move them around by myself. Not touching them again until I unload tomorrow.... heavy mofo's.... Not sure what I'll do with them in my shop, but I'll find a use

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
