[TR] Radiator recore, crank hole etc.

   Only  30  years  old and it already has a leak?! Do you still have the
   receipt? :)

A few months ago when I thought I had a radiator leak I pulled the front apron
off to remove the radiator and fix it. After I got everything apart I found
out the leak was actually a pinhole in my top radiator hose that was only 30
years old. Imagine that. Anyway, upon reassembling everything, I noticed how
much of the radiator is actually below the apron shelf and thus shrouded by
the apron itself and so deprived of airflow through the grill. I was wondering
if any benefit could be had by cutting/bending the shelf down to allow more
airflow to the lower part of the radiator? Has anyone ever considered this?
