164 overheating 140-160 1972

It can be hard to see radiator leaks due to the tight 164 engine compartment, but most of these old radiators are rotten. Take it out and look for green copper corrosion or wetness on the bottom or any of the tank seams. MAybe you can see something through the grille.
SInce they're copper/brass you can get them repaired at a radiator shop, unlike the plastic/aluminum ones in newer cars.
