There is a radiator manufacturer near me that advertises all types of radiator cores. While I don't need one now I thought I might take an A core down to them and see what they can offer the hobby. I don't think any of the "Model A" radiator guys sell just cores anymore and was wondering if there would be a market for just cores that you would use your tanks.

I think Maine radiator sells cores, and recores originals. Brassworks advertises that they will recore your tanks. -
You got my attention, tell me more! ($$$$$$$) Installation?

I talked to Maine a while back, they could do a core, but it would not mimic an original. When you're all said and done just do a Bergs.3~ Tudor's & 1~ Coupe

I need to get a new radiator for my late 28 roadster. The good news is that there are options. The challenge is that there may be more than one good option. Here is what I have narrowed it down to:
1. New Berg's radiator
2. New Brassworks round tube radiator
3. Have Bert's recore my old radiator
Many people love Berg's radiators. They don't recore anymore,...12-02-2018, 09:11 PM -
I figured that there was something wrong with the radiator installation that prevented the hood from aligning correctly.
Well, I backed my A out into the sunlight and wow, my radiator is catiumbus.
So, how do I straighten the radiator?

Seems the guy I bought a mint radiator from million years ago was truthful. Anybody have source for a fp core?03-24-2022, 05:43 PM -
Does anybody know where I can get the Ford drawings/blueprints for the '29 radiator? I am interested in the specification of the radiator frame dimensions, core placement, etc.
Thanks.

Is Bergs still the best place to buy a new radiator? I need one for my 26 roadster I am building...11-08-2020, 05:14 PM -
I have a 29 Delux Fordor Town Sedan that needs a new radiator. Which is better Brassworks or Berg radiator?...05-05-2019, 11:02 AM -
Can I get someone who owns a 28-29 A to measure with a set of calipers the outside neck of their radiator and also count the threads per inch ? Thanks in advance!06-27-2021, 09:34 PM -
Both sides of the radiator brackets have come loose from the tank.You do not have permission to view this gallery.

These radiators seem to have identical inlets and outlets yet is the model B radiator different capacity/ greater heat exchange than a model A radiator?01-04-2018, 05:26 PM
