1910-1911 Mitchell "T" or "R" radiator wanted


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

I'm looking for a good example. I have a poor one that may actually work but doesn't look very good. The Mitchell T and R (both 4-cylinder cars) used the same radiator. It does not have a decorative brass shell. The outer shell was a separate piece and I don't have that either. Height is about 25-1/2", width 25", total thickness about 2-3/4 inches. Since is sits in a cross member, I don't have a lot of wiggle room on the thickness. I'll post a photo tomorrow but it's a very conventional "Mercedes" shape as seen on many cars. The only slightly unusual feature is that the bottom corners are clipped. I'm not fussy about this... it doesn't actually have to be from a Mitchell. It just has to look the part.

Joe here is a picture of what you are looking for.  The second picture is the model S rad I am looking for but its the same profile, just thinker.

Here are some photos of the radiator I have. It looks better in the pictures than in real life but you can see where the fins damaged in the back.

My apologies for taking so long to get back to you. Mike West tell me your Mitchell radiator is very nice but for an earlier model...but, I've just been contacted by a friend who may be interested. I'll send you a private message with my real email address.

 

Thanks,
