New Radiators
 

Does anyone know if Berg's expertise in building quality radiators was passed onto to another supplier? Please suggest other recommended vendors. Quality as in Gery's is more important than cost. We all know the price of goods are up. Looking forward to your comments.

Tom, as far totally new radiators, none that I know of. I just had Bert’s in Denver do a 4-row recore for me. Cools and fits fantastic.

I don't think Berg's is building any more new radiators. Try Brass Works. They have different styles so pick one that suits your needs.

I have had a Bert’s recored original tank radiator 4 row for 10 years or so.
Cools well. It fits and has clips on bottom for light wires.

I was lucky to get one of the last Berg’s for my model T.

Berg’s had supply chain issues like everything else, so he closed his one man shop. Haven’t heard if anyone bought his business

Ditto on the 4 row from Bert's. I have had it in for five years and never went over 180 Degrees. I have climbed a 6400 elevation pass in 100 Degree weather in 2nd over. Never went over 180 degrees. I love it...

I have always had good luck with Brassworks, running 3 of them now
