Here's a shot of the original radiator that came with the car. Jeff had sent it out to be re-cored before he shipped the car and then packed it away within the trunk. It got the typical rad shop paint job even when he asked for them not to paint it, so I'll strip the tanks and paint it correctly before installing it over the winter months. The UH tag was kept aside so it didn't get lost and I'll be sure to snag some better pictures as it goes back into the car real soon. At the same time, I'll install a rebuilt 692 water pump which will correct 2 of the things I need to do in the engine bay. The CB tank is also dated J for October.



I snuck my camera in behind the radiator today to check out the front of the clutch fan. I can only tell you I was real happy to find it was as clean as the rest of the car and clearly showed the original CV ink stamps and dating from Eaton. This will be gently preserved when the radiator and water pump go back into the car. August 21 of 1969 dating.
