I found this radiator in the rafters of a clean-out awhile back.
The owner said he didn't know what it was off of, let alone were it came from or how long its been there.
It has brass tanks, a copper core and is very heavy...35#'s
It measures....27" H...17 1/2" W....3" thick
The thing thats got me stumped is the 4 ports. 2 top & 2 bottom.
I have added some pic's.
I really don't want to scrap this. It looks to be in great shape and its super clean inside.
Someone could maybe use it for a original restore project ??
Any help would be great....Thanks, Dave

Yep flatly Ford. They had 2 upper hoses, and 2 water pumps. From the looks it is probably from the 30's or 40's. the brackets at the top for rods to support it, they would have been attached to the firewall. The hood would have opened from the side.
I believe the same thing, Pat. Hadn't seen one of those in years!

If there is a Good Guys Reunion any where Close You have a pile of Gold on your hands.
Nostalgia Rods are a big thing and people are reviving the Flathead Fords.
Or any city of any size will have Drive In Nights where the rodders gather.
Incidently that V8 60 was the poor mans offy in the midget racing game in it's time.
