1933 Chevy Truck Radiator
1933 Chevy Truck Street Rod
1933 Chevy Truck Radiators 1/2T and 1-1/2T truck with the 2-1/8" Harrison hexagon pattern film core had a water passage of 1-5/8" with 1/4" lead on dip on the face and rear and we replace this with a 1-13/16 10FPI tube and fin core.
Tube and fin core conversions are regarded as more modern efficient core design and can accomodate pressure of a modern engine.
The 1933 Chevy truck have a horizontal support framework that supported the lights. The OEM core was ~2-1/8" thick so growing the core for added cooling requires modifying or removing this horizontal bar.
Images reflect past builds and illustrate various elements of design. The radiator you order will be constructed based on the information you provide for your bespoke build.
Made in the USA
We make to order. Please allow adequate time for us to build.
Build time estimates [Feb 2025]
Brass/Black Model Ts
Our longstanding foundry (supplier) closed and all production was shifted to a neighboring foundry. Apparently many of the closed foundry's workers were ineligible for rehire by the new foundry due to more aggressive immigration enforcement and the union has no employees to provide. As of 2-20-25, we should receive castings in March 2025 and can resume production then.
In the interim, we have been working with our one-off foundry to have pattern boxes made and these are trickling in in smaller batches and we will produce what we can.
Model As 5-6 weeks
Heater cores ~6 weeks
Model A and 32 Ford Street rods 6 weeks
Common street rods ~12-15 weeks
Tricky customs & complicated restorations ~16 weeks months
We appreciate your patience as we continue to recruit and train new fabricators and manage the labor shortfall our country has been experiencing.
