Classic Mustang: RE: [Classic Mustang] 1967 Mustang radiator

Thanks Walt,

I do not recall which Radiator I bought but it was probably the 68-70 so
I would have to but the 68 style lower mounts. It does look like with
the 67 bracket you would still have to drill a hole in the top of the
strut unless one is already there but I do not recall seeing one. Back
then I searched wrecking yards for some similar style lower mounts but
found nothing so I fabbed a bracket out of 1.5" galvanized angle-which
sits across both struts. This raised the radiator up some so I had to
adjust the hood.

Now I can get the correct brackets-I pulled the radiator out 3 yrs ago &
never put it back in so in the past 3 yrs the car has become a storage
shelf!

Thanks again,
Lee

Note that there are *two* different BB radiators, the 67 and the
68-70.....
The 68 is slightly larger and and uses the lower mounts that bolt to
the
strut arm supports... the 67 BB radiator lower mounts sit on top of the
strut
arm supports. The 68 style mounts require drilling a hole in the
support.
Mustangsplus sells both versions
