    IMG_5474.JPG IMG_5473.JPG For the race I ended up buying one of those cheap aluminum radiators, one of the small
    Issues I've noticed with the ones I purchased a few years ago was the over flow tube was super close the upper radiator hole, almost couldn't get the tube on.
    They remedied this by moving the filler neck over and intern moving the radiator stay rod bracket over too... it's now not centered in the top tank. It drove me crazy sitting in the car and looking at the unevenness of the rods opposed to the grill shell. So I cheated a bit and made an offset bracket and modified a pair of model A stay rods with a hoop.
    It's a little ghetto but itll do for now.

    It's a traditional snow blower of course...radial tires, tilt Shute, halogen headlight...lol

    My brothers, our friends & I couldn't wait to go shoveling snow growing up in Brighton in the '50s. They now run to Florida in Nov to May, I stayed here. 56 years last month. Stay warm!!!

    Subscribed! Absolutely amazing work man! I read the whole thing in one shot....some sick part of me kept thinking you only installed the aftermarket 1/4s to help construct the shell and that with all your skills you'd rebuild your original henry 1/4's and stick 'em back on ha ha ha
