Received My New Radiator

Post by BLB27 » Fri Apr 22, 2022 9:55 pm

I just received the new flat tube radiator for my 1927 coupe. It was well packed! The top side brackets for the radiator shield come unattached. The photos compare it to my round tube radiator.

Your old radiator looks great! I’m sure there are plenty MTFCA members that would love to have such a nice original radiator. You may be able to offset the cost of the new radiator by selling your old one. In its’ present condition it should bring a good price. Jim Patrick

That radiator would look right at home on a barn find vehicle in need of a replacement. I presume the sent in the front panel co-incides with the one in your radiator shell. It needs a good home rather than a shop shelf.

It would have looked great right where it was, when it was attached to one of the best preserved original cars I think I have ever seen.
