1929 629 radiator shell needed

[Guest]

I have a 29 Pontiac 629 and am in need of a radiator shell. Any ideas? None have showed up in ebay for the past 6 months.

Thanks,

David

There were a couple on ebay last year. Terribly expensive. I believe they were starting the bidding around $300 and they needed repairing and re nickling. The last price I got to have mine re nickled was $1200.00 a far cry from the $40.00 I paid in 1960 to have it done the last time. You know a 30 is a different part number but the only difference is the diameter of the hole in the top for the radiator neck. If you had a 30 one your rad cap would over hang the shell by about a quarter of an inch. Perhaps this doubles you chance of finding one.

Best of luck.

To my surprise...currenlty bidding on one in ebay. Everybody be nice and let me finally have it!

What can I say. After two years of waiting I was outbid in ebay 1 minute before closing and I didn't have enough time to up my bid. Frustrating to say the least. It might be time for me to sell the farm and just let them all sit in the yard and rust away.
