New to the forum. Just acquired a 1957 Buick Roadmaster :grin:

I'm trying to remove the Radiator from a 1957 Buick Roadmaster. Need to take it to the shop to have it recored. I seem to have all the bolts off but for some reason it is still not coming loose. Am I missing something !?!?! Something from the bottom seems to be holding it in.... Any help would be appreciated.

There may be a heater hose, trans oil line, or a lower radiator hose down at bottom still conected?

Everything is disconnected but I can't get it from around the metal shroud around the fan. Thanks for the fast response!
