Ill have to verify but Im thinking it needs to be no more than 21" tall.. there is two I have been thinking about but I cant decide ..

Everyone seems to swear by the 65-66 mustang radiators so thats option 1...

the other one I have been looking at is a lo boy radiatror from a company called dillion radiator.. which I actually was thinking might have been what you were running.

Yeah I have a 65 mustang radiator for my packard cuz everyone told me I could use that because of the size

The 1st car in the pic is my 1938 Packard phantom sedan delivery that still needs to be finished

I will do some checkin around for you and see what I come across

Does anyone have any ideas for the grille insert??? I am at a complete loss right now

The grille shell I have is a 1934 chevy truck shell

How about making one out of brass rod or tubing.

That could be cool but I have no idea how to do brazing

Well here's what I came up with for turnsignals for the truck. I still need to get lights for inside them but what ya think?

 

[LUCKY DEVIL 13]

Just found out that when I get the truck finished I might have a feature in a local minnesota magazine!!! Rat Rod magazine Nothing is for sure yet [cl [cl [cl
