Willy Posted December 27, 2013 Author Share Posted December 27, 2013 I'm trying, but my computer won't let me put the photos up. I've reduced the sizes to the smallest size (640), and tried it a dozen times, but no dice. Wish I can remember how I did it before! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willy Posted December 27, 2013 Author Share Posted December 27, 2013 Okay, got photo up. My guess is the left one is off a Dodge '48-'52; middle one , '36 Ford; right on, possibly a '38-'40 Oldsmobile or Pontiac. Need someone who actually knows, though!

Guest prs519 Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 My guess is the last one is earlier than your years stated, because it is the honeycomb variety, which I believe were more common, early thirties on back. A 1936 or 35 Ford radiator is remarkably heavy. I am thinking you may have a 1935: all of what I say is very conjectural. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
28 Chrysler Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Photos of the back sides may help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Mellor NJ Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 That center one is a Ford V8. It will have 4 pipes. If the top two are heading downward it is 35-36. If more backward it is 37-38. The outlets moved to the centers of the head in 37. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Mellor NJ Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 That's a 37-38 Ford rad in the center Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willy Posted December 30, 2013 Author Share Posted December 30, 2013 Thanks, Dave! Now, next question - is this worth saving, or is it scrap? I would also like to find out what the one on the right is, and if it's worth saving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Mellor NJ Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 It's certainly not scrap. I would post on the V8 forum of Fordbarn and ask for an opinion or just set a price,around $200.It should also fit a 39 Standard but not DeLuxe.

Willy Posted January 1, 2014 Author Share Posted January 1, 2014 Thanks Dave - I would like to get rid of it, but not scrapping it out, if it's usuable. One down, two to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFranklin Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 The one to the right is a '30s GM maybe Chevrolet as it looks like my 1936. Even if the cores are deemed junk the tanks might be usable for recoring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
