That's what I said.
Tim that radiator is not the same as a '68 that's at my friends shop. I think its a '67 like you said yesterday.
One difference I'm seeing is the upper hose fitting. No idea what else is different. or how they compare to '66.
edit: sure looks similar to this '65

2 sides to that board?
Fibberglass. Some one did one here, it was nice.
Picture a square sheet of plywood,rings in center, a t-shirt stapled over and then fiberglassed. Couple days work, and it would fit.
True that!
@Mopar Tim found these two threads with pics ^
I've seen that done. Pretty cool (so to speak).
Seems the trick for survival is good structure and/or a resin that will hold up with underhood temperatures.
My radiator has 4 small holes facing the engine to mount the shroud....That's what I said.

I see that on the map. Yuck!
Guess its '67 then. Lucky you - an orphan.
I still like the cardboard idea to get the dimensions.

Just got back in from fixing the grinding noise in my front passenger drum and it turned out to be the self adjuster running around in there.
Also, I noticed that the drums were CRAZY tight in adjustment. not noticeable when driving but definitely overadjusted. I really do not think the shop that went through and checked the brakes, ACTUALLY took the drums off.
so damn. I told my parents that it did not need to go to the shop....

The adjuster system was changed in 1969. Whether the change started with the calendar year or model year woul have to look up.
An important difference is the '69 up self adjusting system works the star wheel on the adjuster in the opposite direction from the earlier system.
A lot of the computerized systems don't have that info correct so show parts from before and after as interchangable that are not.
Its OK. Its only the brakes

I really think they didn't take the drums off though. (even though we paid for a full checkup on the brakes) I guess live and let learn....
VSAT on the boat took a dump on the 30th of July @ 21:36. We had no comms till yesterday the 11th. I'm ok but we have limited comms till main system is repaired.
Howdy all!
