That surely is the face of the Model T. The first one has had "cosmetic surgery with skin grafts :lol:

No plastic surgery but some Botox. T shell would not fit over the square top forklift radiator.

Nothing inside just a radiator and hood.

The brass Baby Lincoln hood ornament on our 1915 runabout was a fun addition to the car.

A Bugati Bug getter. How's the cooling ?

Norm, the cooling, generally, is ‘way better than one might expect.

That is a 1938-tagged replacement honeycomb rad and it works very well. Most times I leave the fan belt so loose the fan hardly spins, and I only bring it up to operating snugness on very hot days or when a lot of climbing is expected.

The bugs you see are 2,000 miles worth — a badge of distance-honour that I cleaned off once we arrived home.

We’ll Chris, I’m guessing you had to brush your teeth when you got home.

Keep your radiator clean! Those radiators cool very well when clean, but due to the construction cannot be rodded out. They can only be boiled. Use a good rust inhibitor in it. Some of the old Plymouths and Dodges had that type from the factory.
