Title: Radiator mounting 1929U
Post by: jjohn on November 17, 2019, 12:27:43 PM
Hi
Does anyone have any picture how the radiator is attached to the frame?
The hole in the frame looks strange..
The radiator that was with the car has a PA number.
Does this radiator fit to this car?
Thanks,

John,

It attaches by two bottom bolts.  I don't think a PA radiator will work with the 29 in that the hoses attach differently and probably mount differently.  I have a spare radiator that was in my car and setup for the 29 thermosyphon engine.  The only problem with this radiator was it didn't have the hole for the crank.  Outside of that.., it looked and worked great.  You can have it for shipping costs.  Also I have the surround for it which the bottom was repaired with bondo and painted with chrome paint.   Didn't look bad on the car But I have since acquired a better replacement which was re-chromed.  If you want them you can have them.

The picture below is the car in 2007 with the parts I described:
