I have pictures of the straps if you need them.
I used all my straps and tank tops on 4 original 1962 409 4 core radiators(new brass cores)

Thanks Paul
Yes I could always use additional reference
I do have some reference info on the straps as long all the 0018 straps have the square standoffs for the shroud

 

[pvs409]

The 409 factory straps not on radiator have the square nuts -I added them back -someone removed them
before I bought the straps

I just picked up my recored original 1962 409 radiator from my local radiator shop - they had for close to a year to install a new brass 4 core on the original 409 straps and tanks. Cost close to $700 plus the value of the original radiator.
Not sure I will use this 1962 409 radiator.

Should have taken all the dents in the top tank.

Is that date tag in the factory location? How is it attached?

 

[409forever]

Paul I have close to 1500 in this one all in re-core (Brass 3 Row) and cost of the used radiator I had to swallow hard but its right and correct
They don't make original anymore

 

[pvs409]

All the reproduction 409 brass core radiators sold are 4 core radiators -to my knowledge for more cooling
capacity for 409 engines.
I have a 4 core original 409 radiator in my 62 327/300 HP 4 speed hardtop -car runs all day at 180/185 degrees.

62_conv_2_4s ,The tag is the new core part number if that's what your referring to

Phil, I had a new top but decided to use the original to give some patina to the radiator so now I have the new top up for sale to help recover some of the cost of the re-cored radiator
Not gong to be a 100% show car just a good replica of my brothers car from 62

Sounds reasonable!!
