I've used Ishmael's in El Socorro after hearing good things about them, and must say they did a great job re-building my radiator for me, switching my plastic end tanks with metal/brass end tanks. However, this was several years ago, so I'm not sure if they're still among the best, especially after the owner died (got robbed if I remember correctly - I'm open to correction here....)

Ishmael's in El Socorro is perhaps one of the best radiator places that i know off. Trinidad Radiator Works is also very good. I am basing this on experience with the two places for two different vehicles.

Had negative experience with Deo's on the south bound highway lane...

But id stick to Ishmael's or Trinidad Radiator

Ishmael just built one for me and whilest I always referred ppl there, I have never done work there till now and from this experience I know why I always referred ppl there.
Most of the big names have good and bad because of labour turnover and not enough check back on work done.
