WTB: 1960 Radiator for car w/ Air Cond

[jimi]

I need a radiator (excellent condition) for my 1960 Eldo . I am retro fitting the 7 blade fan and shroud found on AC cars and need the radiator used on cars with air conditioning as well . Thanks in advance for your imput

Jimi,
I do not see the need to go through the trouble and expense to convert your non-AC car to the AC car radiator, fan, and shroud.  Your car should not need that extra cooling capacity if the system is in proper working condition.  Cadillac engineers did not see a need for it either.  If you are having a cooling problem then remedying that should be more than sufficient.  Your system, as designed, with a 180 degree thermostat, should do just fine, even in a parade.  If not there is a problem somewhere in the system.  As mentioned, you could put the 7 blade fan on without going through the other changes and that alone will give a little extra air flow.

Just my view, it is your car and you can do with it as you see fit.

I have intention of putting a/c in the car and this seems like a very straight forward , easy , bolt on way to increase the cooling capacity .

Ahhhh, I guess that changes things a little.  In your other post you never mentioned that fact, just said you were looking for more summer cooling.  Best of luck with it.
