Re: Underhood carnage on my F-1
Got a replacement radiator this morning from an old truck salvage guy.
A few more bits and I can put her back together..... |

Re: Underhood carnage on my F-1
Happened to me a few years ago as well. Had to have radiator re-cored and dent repair/repaint ride side hood. Good news is that the car runs much cooler now. While I had it all apart, I sent the water pumps to Skip, replaced the coil, etc.....

With your shroud and fan I'm now back in business as soon as I pick up my new "radiator" from being re-done locally. |

Re: Underhood carnage on my F-1
I have a '48 radiator and maybe a shroud but it was a 6 and i put dual outlets for a V8. The radiator is good but useless to me as i have a loaded flathead for it. Someday!! If interested get back to me.

Re: Underhood carnage on my F-1
Just imagine hold many times the OEM used steel fan has flexed during it 60 or 70 years of rotating. Pretty scary considering it's only mild steel , heavy and can easily develop microscopic points of failure. Not a good idea to use one, IMO.

Re: carnage on my F-1..... FIXED
Thanks to fellow Ford Barn member Bums F-1 and a lucky find original radiator at Bob's F-100 Parts in Riverside CA, I'm up and running again.
I scored a 6 blade NOS fan off of eBay and bolted that on as well. (B4Q-8600-A Which interestingly has both the Y-block bolt pattern and the 8 bolt flathead pattern) |

Re: Underhood carnage on my F-1
I think you got screwed on your NOS six blade fan, it only has five blades.

Well, one more thing for me to have anxiety over
