Radiator inlet needed
Got a call from the shop repairing the radiator I brought them, they said everything is great on it EXCEPT the inlet, it’s completely gone. He’s trying to figure out what he can do to fix and has called some friends of his to see if anyone has one or a junk radiator he can take it off of. I figured I’d post here as well with the pics of my inlet and see if anyone has one they’d be willing to part with! I told him to take his time my wife got into a fender bender and gotta pay deductible, but he said if he can get one to replace it he won’t charge me for that part! Here’s a pic of the inlet he sent me:

Re: Radiator inlet needed
I have replacements cast in brass available. Finding usable originals just got too hard.

Re: Radiator inlet needed
Bergs and Brassworks have been making new radiators for years. They've been getting those parts somewhere. I'd ask them.
The inevitable often happens.

Re: Radiator inlet needed
Steve, Bergs top outlet is a completely different beast. It will not fit any standard T radiator. While they made excellent radiators for a black car, their different top tank and outlet meant I chose to stay with Brassworks for my roadster radiator.

Re: Radiator inlet needed
Go to the Brassworks web site. Call or text them what you need. They make radiator necks and will make what you need. Go under radiator necks and caps and they have examples of what they make.
Hope this will help.
They make radiators and get their parts from somewhere. They either make them or buy them. Call and ask,
