I'm putting this post here since Bob's work is a full Restoration of a radiator not just a repair. If needs to be moved Mods please do:

It been said many times before but it can't hurt to recognize the "Good Guys" in our hobby again. I had Bob restore my original 26" radiator and besides being a work of art it performs better than OE. It was about 93+ and humid the other day and my car just made it up to the first line on the gauge with A/C on idling for a while. I know that's not Scientific but when I bought the car last year with a lot less motor it would get up to the middle of the gauge.
Thanks Bob Glen ray Radiators you are a true Craftsmen!

Bob and his guys are the best.
I just got my cars original radiator back from Glen Ray as well. Looks better than new.
Radiator was back and in the car for a week before I could ever get Bob to slow down long enough to accept my payment.

Diamond in the rough, Bob and his company is definitely in the "Good guys and buddy club". I have, at least, 5 of Bob's radiators in my cars.

He did my original radiator in my 69 Coronet.The top tank was cracked in two places(about 1 1/2" each).After the restoration,it looked like new.Turn around was fast and cost was resonable.Good guy to deal with.

I had Bob do an 048 radiator for me, and one for a good friends AAR project.
We were able to drop them off at Carlisle and pick them up at the Mopar Nationals this year. I can not say enough for Bob and his crew as they are great to work with. They do outstanding work and are top notch!

He did the same for me and my mechanic. He rebuilt my '69 053 radiator and it runs 165-170 all day even in hot and humid Iowa summer weather.

Bob's a good guy.

Bob made a P/S cooler for my GTX. Great craftsmanship. I sent him payment and he shipped it before he even got the check!

Bob sent me the radiator to be sure I was happy before he gave me a bill for the total.
Trust for hobbyist's is unheard of now a days. I surely hope NO ONE ever violates his kindness.

I have talked to Bob out at Carlisle multiple times. I gotta say he really helped me out a lot with a lot of questions and such. If I ever need to get my rad redone, he will be the guy I go to !

Definitely one of the good guys and really pays attention to the detail !

Have to absolutely agree that Bob is a great guy and a credit to the hobby. He spent a lot of time fielding my questions and offering up parts and solutions while I was sorting out my Coronet. Plus the radiator he redid for me looks perfect.

I have three 70's Mopar radiators that Bob redid. Best I ever saw if OEM quality is what you're looking for. Great guy!!!!!!!

I won't go anywhere else. He restored the radiator for my 496 Newport and the thing is rock steady at 180 on the hottest days and even in the staging lanes. He also built one for my Coronet that will be running a 543.

Not the cheapest but some of the best money you will spend on your car. I have had several cars I couldn't get to stay cool. There is no worse feeling than being out for a drive and staring at the temp gauge and hoping you don't get caught at a red light, or behind the semi trying to turn left at a busy intersection. It will suck the enjoyment right out of the car.

I sent him my radiator from the Bird and was not short of thrilled at its results. I think its amazing and another piece of jewelry waiting to get installed.

The best in his business and a gentleman too... Can't say enough good things. He also has reproduction trans coolers and power steering coolers that are tops in quality. He has earned his reputation with the best craftsmanship, customer support and way of doing business in the hobby.
