C7OE Radiator Decode
« on: March 20, 2019, 01:04:43 AM »
When I purchased my 65 HiPo fastback, I found a lot of random Ford parts in the trunk. One of these item was this 2-core radiator.

The stamping on the drivers side of the radiator is C7OE 8005 N1 7MB

From what I have been able to find, its for a 67 Fairlane and/or Torino, with a date of the 2nd week of December 1967. 8005 denotes the radiator and grill parts group. Can anyone help out with the rest of the numbers to help identify what this radiator truly goes to? Given it has a pass inlet and pass outlet, obviously a small block comes to mind. I was unable to find any other numbers or tags on the radiator. The approximate dimensions of the core area is approximately 20 inches wide and just a quarter over 17 inches tall.

Here is an additional photo. I was unable to add a second photo for some reason in the original post.

In the service manual the radiator sizes are measured by the core not including the tanks. I think the Torino-Fairlane tank height is around 17 inches.
Mustang radiators are 16 inches high.

Thanks, that would explain why it looks taller then 17 inch's in the picture.
