1917-1923 Model T Radiator

Commonly called the low style this radiator comes with die-stamped three part tank assembly and a beaded top tank like Ford's original. The nickel-plated filler neck on the top is polished to a high luster and inlet and outlet fittings are red brass castings for increased protection against corrosion. Mounting holes are 7/8" unless otherwise specified. All Model T radiators have deep drawn bottom tanks without seams to crack or leak and are available in the original round tube core or more modern and efficient flat tube core. Ford transitioned from low style to high style halfway through 1923. Confirm your header-to-header measurement of 17" before ordering a low style radiator.

Round Tube Radiator $875

1924-1927 Model T Radiator

Commonly called the hi style radiator this radiator also comes with die-stamped parts and a beaded top tank exactly like Ford's original. The nickel-plated filler neck on the top is polished to a high luster. Inlet and outlet fittings are red brass castings for increased protection against corrosion. Mounting holes are 7/8" unless otherwise specified. All Model T radiators have deep drawn bottom tanks without seams to crack or leak and are available in the original round tube core or more modern and efficient flat tube core. Ford transitioned from low style to high style halfway through 1923. Confirm your header-to-header measurement of 18-3/8" before ordering a high style radiator.

Occasionally we get a request for a 1926-1927 "thin core" radiator. This was sold in the northern states where overheating was less of a concern or, perhaps, containing manufacturing cost was a greater concern (read more). Correspondence between Ford's dealers and Ford manufacturing indicate that the thin core was not as effective for cooling. Suggestions of water pumps, changes to fan blade angles and the use of longer hubs for fan mounting were Ford's proposed remedy. Most owners prefer to convert to a shorter hube and install a standard size core. Contact us directly should you wish to purchase a thin core radiator.

Polished 1917-1927 Radiators

Occassionally we polish a Model T that is typically black. They have been made for cars without shells and engine stands and are certainly conversation starters.

We also produce custom radiators for T-Buckets
