    Scrounging around is fun, and certainly a must when you are on SS and trying to build a decent project !! :p
    But the rewards are great....as in this nice Radiator shell and grill screen I picked up recently for $50 !
    I am a happy camper indeed...
    It is a Model A set up but will do nicely on my '26 Model T build...
    If I understand correctly an older Mustang radiator will fit right in it too! :)
    Gotta love this retirement stuff....all day to just mess around and often finding what you need by just bumming around..
    Cheers,
    Bob

    I have read that also, but before spending SS money on a new one, see if the lower water outlet will clear the front crossmember?

    The A shell looks good on that later T cowl.

    66 Mustang should work.

    that's an A cowl (28-29) right? Not a T as one of the earlier comments stated?

    It's got the gas door so it's a T.

    Yep the 26/27 coupes and sedans have that style line on the cowl similar to Model A's while the roadsters and tourings didn't have it.

    Thanks for the comments....will be checking out '66 Mustang radiators..
    This is a Jalopy build and is a 1926 Model T Tudor Coupe body with the top cut off, sitting on a Model A frame, and that is a Model A radiator shell/grill screen also....
    Cheers......
