Ideas on what to do with my 'old' radiator?

Folks, do you have any tips on what I can do with my 'old' new 1" radiator I took from the dealer?

I paid a reduced price to have the two row 2" one installed after I negotiated with Ford to give me a 6 yr/100000 warranty for free.

Thanks.

Stop by your local parts salvage yard and see what it would cost to buy a used one. You'll probably be surprised!

Then put yours on EBay at that price. With a zillion F-150's whacking deer and slower Chevies, you shouldn't sit on it for long.

Cool TukwilaF150SC-

Put it in the classifieds here and wait for someone who doesn't maintain their cooling system to need one due to clogged passages and overheating.

Solder a heavy copper wire to it, bury it in a 6 ft. hole. Hook up the wire to a lightning rod. Can't hardly get a better ground than that.

Save it. You never know when you just might need it. For all you know, something just might go wrong with the new one you have, and if Ford has to order another one, and it takes awhile, youll have one to keep your truck on the road.

Use it as a decorative coffee table.

Ah, to be gone and not forgotten, thanks everyone for the helpful hints on what to do with my radiator....when it lands in Seattle off the Space Needle, remember me not...hopefully Ford will investigate and decide it needed a bigger radiator after all to withstand the heat of the investigation....

Well, it's about the right size for

an AC condenser.
