Spaulding Radiator

We are often asked by prospective customers to “just re-core my radiator.”  We do not just recore a radiator, rod out cores or hot tank a radiator in caustic chemicals.   These may be time saving techniques but they can damage, weaken or shorten the life of your radiator.  Furthermore, these terms suggest quick and easy fixes to fundamental problems, weak brittle metal, clogged tubes or compromised joints or seams.  Shortcuts invite problems and we don't want problems.  Instead we offer a thorough restoration service.  Read more about the process


    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.
