Not sure why you'd feel cheated. And I'll answer the other related questions all in one post here;
1. We have a 100% no questions warranty. You can get a full refund.
2. We have been totally open about our company. We are an American Company that employs almost 50 American's. We wanted to fill a void in the market for a super high quality performance radiator at a very reasonable price. We're 40% less than the companies that 'weld theirs in the USA'. And by the way, even those companies are many times sourcing the cores, tanks and brackets outside the USA. So does that make those radiator American made because they are assembled here? Did you all know that your brand new American car or truck has 100's of foreign parts in it? Did you know that about 75% of the reproductions for your Mopar are made overseas?
Look, this would be a very good philosophical debate for all of us. But neither of us are in the debating business Lol! and you guys are just looking to build and drive a nice classic! Some of you don't have unlimited budgets. We're in the business of making really good radiators for a very good price. If you feel that you need to spend 40% more to know the radiator your bought was assembled in the USA, then that's what you should do! I certainly can't fault you for that. But I do find it a little abrasive that you might think we are somehow less American for the way we run Cold Case.
