Default Removal 1936 radiator

Yesterday morning I removed 2 36 radiators. It took 1.5 hours
each.
1 remove front hood bracket and gray hound, remove hood
2 remove bottom front grill pan and start to drain water
3 completely remove stay rods to firewall and air cleaner
4 remove lower hoses, May have to cut off
5 remove screws at top of grill to radiator support
6 remove 2 bolts holding right horn, lay horn back on frame
7 remove headlight wire from bottom radiator clips
8 remove front plug wire tube bolts so they can lift up in front
9 loosen distributor cap bails, pull caps out, bail toward engine
10 remove coil wire and vacuum line from distr. distr. bolts drop
distr. and coil out the bottom.
11 remove temp sender from left pump, remove both pump bolts
12 remove top hose clamps at radiator end, twist pump and hose
to release hose from radiator. Old hoses are stiff and don't bend
13 remove generator
14 remove cotter pins, nuts bolts and springs that hold radiator
15 Lift radiator, twist to left and lay it way back to the top of
carb as it comes out.
This question comes up and I thought doing 2 with the procedure
fresh in my mind I would post it. The radiator won't come out with
the grill in and the pumps on. G.M.
