I think most of us today's Model A seniors, (especially when around earlier high school age), recognized every car that was produced immediately before or after our high school years.
After WWII gas rationing was lifted my Dad, (born 1902), took us on out of state vacations every summer, naturally on back roads, prior to Interstates.
Many old 1920's,1930's car could be seen parked in front of old rural stores back then. Upon approaching a vintage car I would always ask him what make.
He always accurately identified each one. I'm sure his being a garage manager/mechanic from 1920's until 1932 helped his identifying each.

by sunnyormWell, I finely got my original radiator shell, after going thru several methods, which all proved to be unsuccessful.
Now the background: first I bought a radiator ('28/29), which turned out to be some aftermarket from a few years back, and turned out to be 5/8" too tall, which, also, would not fit with repro commercial shell, so next, i was able to purchase an original radiator, which...-

by ClaudeCThese radiators seem to have identical inlets and outlets yet is the model B radiator different capacity/ greater heat exchange than a model A radiator?

by Art EbelingToday I was mocking up the front fenders and running board aprons to the frame to take to the body shop. I also put the radiator shell on the radiator in order to install the hood. What keeps the bottom of the radiator shell from contacting and scratching the front fender?

by RowdyStumbled onto a 17-22 low radiator shelll with no script. I do not see any reference to any shells of that era without a script in the few books I own. Does anyone have any info on when these were used? Thanks Rod

by CullenI am building a 29 Ford Model A pickup out of pieces......cab parts here, fenders there, etc.
I am using all Miata running gear and suspension parts but I want the truck to look like a 29 that just came out of a barn.
Here is what I need. I am trying to locate the Height above and Distance in front of the front cross member that the stock radiator shell mounts.
I am not using a radiator...-

by 2manycarsI pulled the engine out of the tudor this morning for a refresh, and found a few surprises, and some usual nuttiness from Henry.
Who thought of running the headlamp wires through the radiator shell should be fired. A real pain with the early headlamps that have the tiny screws attaching the wire to the insulating barrel at the headlamp connection.
I can guess why original engine splash...-

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....

Along the lines of Mitch's post, I don't know the answer to this, but so many of us have had problems with cooling and the blocked radiators, I wonder if there could be some good calibrated check of the rate of flow through a radiator. For instance, keep pouring water into the radiator so that it is full (flowing out the overflow tube and top of the radiator won't matter) and then disconnect the...
