65/66 original style AT radiator cooler line fittings?
« on: March 27, 2022, 04:29:09 PM »
Wondering if anyone has a source for the original steel/natural style cooler line radiator fittings, not brass ;)

Thanks,

Check with Mustang /Cougar salvage sellers .If you can't find any you can plate the brass zinc which with a little ingenuity can be made to look similar to steel.

Original fitting were steel, probably Ford hardware part number 359058-S( 8 ), II-77. Brass was used on Fairlane 390CID AT cars as Ford hardware part number 375030-S (II-87). See detail "A" for details.
