Take it to a radiator shop that has done these old radiators and knows what they're doing. It would be great to save your radiator.

Gotta Love That Special Coupe.....

Hi,
It looks like your Special originally had the drum style tail light mounted on the drivers side of the rear body cross member. There are three D nuts in the cross member just to the right of the license plate in the first photo above.
Regards,
Dave
