Talking changin my waterpump/timing belt & radiator

Car has been over heating for a while now, I never let it run to hot but I'm finally gettin to fixin it

My watrpump seal is shot so water has been leaking from it, and also the plastic topper for my radiator started leaking from under the top hose and around the seal in that corner... pain in my assholes as borat would say

So starting this task today, will b done by 2morrow
Thankgod my girlfriend step dad is a mechanic

Radiator is a common problem due to the plastics. I've changed mines over 5 years ago due to a crack on top. You might want to consider changing timing belt idler tensioner and thermostat while everything is out. Use only quality parts!
