Well not that bad but they are nice if they hold water....
This one has a small hole and a clean up of the upper spout. Will be handling via Acton Custom for repair. If it holds pressure I will try it, still will keep the Fluidyne in the event this becomes a keepsake.....

I guess there is a reproduction in aluminum: 1962-1962 Corvette Radiator, aluminum reproduction @ Davies Corvette Parts
Pretty pricey though!

The radiator pictured is 1961 two row Harrison aluminum radiator. Period correct and if it will hold pressure a great find. I have a Fluidyne 3 row used on 427 (new) cars in the event I cant repair the correct one.

At $870 for a good repop I would need to really have issues with Fluidyne. I know they work splendid so that will probably not happen.

Wish me luck with the repair....

Baby steps.............
Half shafts were 427 size thus did not fit into the A-pillar of the car. With some brute force and a little magic they are in....... now to set the hubs back on so it can hit the road...



Headers on on the car!



Started the wiring..............

Bill

Yes, going with Brass which actually came with the set up. The current version is narrow for GT40 use and also not my style...

I like brass old school look.
