1972 Canadian H-Code 340 Dart Swinger Special Resto - Finally started!

Purchased a numbers correct recored 3 core rad on Ebay a year or two ago and when it arrived the neck was squashed in, I decided since a paid a pretty decent buck for it to give a stab at repairing it. Started out by making a tool that would fit down inside and I could pull up on,

Used my engine picker to give myself careful control pulling it back up which worked pretty descent, its not perfect but will see after I strip the paint and repaint it how it looks. I still have my original 2 core I can go back to if need be but it needs re-coring to look nice,
