Summary: radiator mishap

xxx
Well, I really did it this time. I went to drain the radiator on
my vette and the drain plug WITH the fitting came off!

As a get home solution, I put a toggle bolt, some gaskets and a washer
in place. So far this is holding out (~100 miles).

Any more permanent solution not requiring welding/new_radiator??
The metal is amazingly thin around the hole, I doubt it could
be welded...

thanks in advance
Mike
