<< With the renewed interest in authenticity I am again offering my original  
radiator to anyone who would like it. In other words for free. I swapped it  
out 
for a Hall unit about ten years ago and as best I can recall it was leaking  
in several places but certainly rebuildable. 

>>>Personally, I would much rather have a rebuilt stock radiator than an 
aluminum Fluidyne unit.  The later stock radiators were lacking the internal 
problems that plagued the early units (most of which were fixed under recall, but 
you never know...)  I would have a radiator fit a modern brass core, and braze 
new fittings for off-the-shelf, modern thermoswitches, and away I'd go, 
resulting in a radiator that cools as well as a Fluidyne, but is considerably more 
durable, infinitely more repairable, and a fair bit less expensive.

A friend in Monterey just went this route (after a lister similarly donated a 
worn-out stock radiator) and the results have been absolutely terrific.

>I don't have room to store it any 
 longer so send me a private email if you'd like it and we can arrange 
shipping.  I have the original horns for my 1974L too available on the same 
basis if 
anyone  would like them. >>

>>>Might as well start packing the box--they are going to Canada for sure! :>)
