help with radiator support rods 1930 Roadster
Good morning. I need help placing the radiator support rod brackets on my firewall. Can someone send me a pic with some measurements so I can locate these correctly? Perhaps, just place some masking tape in a couple places and mark the distance for reference? My 30-31 firewall was not drilled for the brackets Thanks, Greg

Does yours have the backup plates on the inside like this one?

Re: help with radiator support rods 1930 Roadster
Hey Bob, that helps, but would still like an exact measurement. And...in general, does a Model a radiator have a slight forward tilt? I can rough out what I have here, but since my gas tank is being resealed I am just trying to get my bearings on the radiator.

I don't know if the top number is very clear, it is 10 1/4".
