The Brassworks has been outfitting Street Rodders with radiators for over thirty years. We use our vast collection of vintage radiators to construct completely stock reproductions or a custom-built handcrafted hot rod radiators that fit and cool. We are used to original shells and not-so-original engines. Our patterns begin in the early 1900s and continue on into the 1960s. If we do not have a particular pattern, our team of engineers, machinists, and fabricators can use your existing radiator parts or sketches to build a dimensionally accurate reproduction.

Custom Street Rod Radiators

If you chopped, channeled and sectioned your car into an unbelievably unique creation and know that you have no hope of an off-the-shelf radiator from your street rod part store or local hot rod shop, then The Brassworks can help.  The Brassworks specializes in building unique custom radiators to accommodate unique custom cars. 

We will work with you on the design of the radiator much like a commissioned piece of art because in many cases that is exactly what it is. We will move inlets and outlets, install transcoolers, install fans and shrouds, chop cores, narrow cores or expand cores. We can work with your stock car, your professional hot rod builder, or a street car kit designer   It is all done at our facility in Paso Robles, California and you are part of the build process from start to finish.

Street Rod Radiator Construction

Built to Cool - Our Street Rod Radiators are available in three row core and four row cores of imported tellurium copper.  We form our copper fin to tumble the air flow and reduce the impact of surface drag from the laminar flow theory. 

Built to Last – Each Brassworks radiator comes ready to bolt to your application and complete with all connections, each assembly comes complete with the following standards.

• Designed to operate with a 15 lb. to 18 lb. cap
• Top tanks are stamped from .040 deep drawn brass
• Mounts for the appropriate year
• Brass drain cock for easy draining
• Oil cooler for automatic transmission upon request
• Heavy gauge steel side brackets
• Simple bolt in application
• Fit to original stock without alterations to grill or grill shell
• Every radiator is tank-tested to 30psi and thoroughly inspected
