    I'm getting to the point of needing a radiator for my 29A. I wanna run the 29 shell. My question is who makes a decent radiator that will cool my 51 flathead? Hell, maybe one of you guys might even have one laying around for sale.Dave

    Dave, get a hold of Randy D on here. He had someone make him one for his, pretty reasonable I am sure, because he is a tight ass!

    Scalloped53 is a radiator guy. He builds custom jobs. If that isn't the route you want to go, then Concours parts sells a replacement brand new radiator for Shoeboxes for $375ish. Comes with a 1 year warrenty. I went that route before I found out what Scalloped did for a living. [​IMG]

    I don't think a shoebox radiator will fit in a '29 Grill shell, but you already know that! [​IMG]

    i know that it wont fit in an A shell, but at least is was a place to start looking.

    I don't have his number, but him and junkyarddog32 are best friends. See if you can e-mail him and get Dan's(?) number.
