On Craigslist in Columbus Ohio saw a trailer load of T parts that will go to scrap yard in a week.
Yous guys that want to save stuff should look it up and go get it.
I have no connection with the seller. Just passing on the info.
Good luck, Dan

I've been watching this saga unfold on Facebook. Guy was fooled into thinking he had a goldmine on his hands.

$600 for 4 brass rads is a good price, IF they're in any kind of decent shape. Odds are they aren't.

If the tanks and cast parts are OK, $150 each is a great price. I would rather have an original brass radiator recored than buy a new one.

Personally, I wouldn't take a gold mine to the scrapper. Or a silver or tin mine, for that matter.
