I'm looking for a radiator for my '31 Chevy. The grille shell can fit something that's 21" x 21" max on the overall dimensions. Got any ideas? Does anyone have a Mustang radiator that they could measure for me? I seem to remember those being pretty small and square-ish.

Thanks,
Ed

The radiator I took out of my Fairlane fit into a '29 Ford model A grill shell I have. I would measure it for you, but it looks like you probably have one there.....
If not, I can measure it.

I've also been eyeing the one in my '58. It looks to me like it would work for an early grill shell.

Mustang radiators are supposed to be a good candidate for early grill shells.... FWIW.

One that i got for my T is from mitsubishi P/U truck, later 80's early 90's,There pretty plentiful & no that much.I got mine in a junk yard.Should fit your car perfect.I believe its about 20x20.

I got a 1964 1/2 to 66 Mustang radiator from this seller on Ebay for $99 plus shiping. He has a couple up now.
