Default Radiator
Anyone had experience with Berg's radiators in Il?
Did original radiators for 1929 have vertical tubes two deep or were they three deep? Round or flat?

My 28 has the original round tubes 3 rows deep. The fins are straight, horizontal and have a fold at the edge.

Here's a couple pictures of two of my 1928 original radiators. Notice the mounting bracket has two holes, one for the fan shroud and one for the radiator shell.

Yes, My late 28 has the shroud, but I don't know if any 29's came with one.
