Looking for a reproduction of a San Jose radiator
« on: May 11, 2016, 02:57:41 AM »
Hi guys,

I'm looking for a nice reproduction of a San Jose 1966 (with W-MO markings) radiator.
I have been chasing them through Internet but I haven't found any major seller that has it.
Do you know where I could get one of those radiators to replace the incorrect one in my car.?

Thanks

I don't think that a reproduction of the 66 S/J radiator is being made at this time.

In my experience, none of the current radiators being sold are even close to original.  Your only real option is to find an original and have it rebuilt.

Found this one that seems close to what I'm looking for. No W-MO marks but rounded squares..
It's the closest one I have seen..

If you want to go down the rebuilding path, Orlando Mustang have one in their parts inventory that you may want to look into.
