The Ford Barn

I bought a radiator for my '49 F4 from LMC. It is a good looking radiator, all brass and copper. It does not have the notch in the bottom tank for the hand crank and I did have to slightly elongate the holes for the fan shroud to fit properly. I would buy another one from them.

49Fordv8F4 - are you still running widowmakers on your F4? I bought a '48 F4 recently but cant find rims with same lug pattern and size to replace. Anyone else have a suggestion?

Tanks for all the posts and pictures. Suggest that you create a log book of each step. It will be appreciated by both yourself and others down the road. Over 12 years with my truck and I wish I had done more than an occasional picture and a pile of receipts.
Enjoy the adventure, Chap
