Radiator part needed
People who wonder if the glass is half empty or half full, miss the point. The glass is refillable.

Re: Radiator part needed
That doesnt look like a stock T radiator, but it appears the "nipple" will come off & is replaceable. Maybe with a formed brass tubing equivalent. I would check with a good radiator shop for the piece & repair.

Re: Radiator part needed
It's most likely an aftermarket radiator.

Re: Radiator part needed
Received the radiator part in the mail today! We'll try to fix this radiator.
Belongs to a new Model T owner. The rest of the radiator surprisingly looks good. No other leaks & kept car cool.
Let's keep our fingers crossed.
