Check underneath the radiator drivers side, there should like a "T-shaped" wing nut that will allow you to drain the coolant.

Well I looked and I cannot really see underneath the radiator. Is it possible that I have to remove the radiator? I do see two rubber bushings that support the radiator, is it inside one of these bushings?
Double checked the side of the radiator next to the lower radiator hose with no success, also checked the front and back at the bottom
I cannot gain access to underneath the radiator unless I lift it up a bit.
Many thanks for your reply but I am still frustrated.......

push comes to shove, if you're really desperate to drain your radiator, pull off the lower radiator hose and that will drain the coolant from your radiator. Did that on my old '85 Mustang; drain cock was frozen on the radiator that I just pulled off the lower hose.
