Technical WTF is this? Cool!

Maybe 33-33 Ford radiator cap??

 

Not sure, but it's been laying around my shop for a while!

 

1933-34 Chevrolet radiator cap.

 

From what I'm seeing it is a Chevrolet cap from 33-34. Neat looking piece. Just wanted to find out what it was. Again, thanks HAMB members!

 

Looks like a 33-34 radiator cap. HRP

 

Looks like the one on my 34 Chevy

 

I have the same one. Was told it was a chevy or olds.

I am gonna modify it to fit a 33 ford truck shell.

 

I have one, too. I always wondered what it was from. What an elegant form...can't beat the 30's for beauty.

 

1933-34 Chevrolet radiator cap. My 33 Chevy Master had one of those there things on top of the radiator till I replaced it with one with an Eagle on it. So my guess would be a 33 or 34 Chevy.
That matches the peak on the front fenders.

 

At a show yesterday and a couple came in, he was driving a 39 chev and she was driving a 38. Very cool cars.

 

Matches the one on my 34 Master.

 

Is it the same for 35?
Mine doesn't have one, and if the 35 isn't the same, I think I need one of them 33 34 ones.

 

Same as 34 / 35 Standard

 

Thanks, I thought it probably was.

 

This looks like the perfect piece to start a project with, no more excuses.

Matches the one on my '35 standard.

 

All ya gotta do is add a 33-34 Chevy radiator to it and bolt it to a frame then a body. Sounds easy!

 

T1, This actually happened to me, I was at a swap meet in '98 and found a set of
perfect and complete '33 Chev. head lights, spotless chrome,excellent reflectors
and clear unmarked lenses . The guy didn't want to haul them home, and offered
them to me for $40.00 for the pair, too nice,too cheap, had to take them home.
Now I had no more excuses for not building the Lakes modified roadster I've
always wanted to build. Its been more than 10 years in process and it about 70%
finished, I'm still hacking at it hopping to finish in my lifetime.

Are these things chromed steel or brass? My is fully chromed and needs some mods if I am going to use a 34 Ford rad cap rebuild.

 

It's as good a reason to start a car, as any. My 34 started with a bare dual quad intake for a Caddy V8. Later added the engine.....Then other misc. parts, (gauges, Impala steering wheel, steering box, and a 59 Pontiac rear axel)....Then finally the car itself. Always figured it would be a Ford instead of a Chevy, though

 

Also fits '36 Chevy Pickups. Chromed pot metal.
