Smile 1939-41 Ford Radiator help needed

Hi All,

can anyone help with the overall height, width and thickness of a radiator for the above Ford 30cwt and 3 ton vehicles?

The same measurements are required for the Ford Marmon Herrington conversions for those years as well. I have been told the M/H had a radiator and shoud about 4inches deeper then standard.

Thanks in advance

don't know if this helps, but i saw this awhile ago. my 41 ford with the marmon conversion uses the same radiator and shroud as the standard 2 wheel drive frame. that's for a standard production cab.there are two different types of radiator that i've seen a early low and a late high style. early one's split and the late has no hole (split) i have both type's if you still need dimensions let me know.

Hi Leo. Yes I still need the correct sizes of the radiators. I had to shelve my project for a while but have got it on the table again now.

Many Thanks
