Continuing to pull things together for this car to stay ahead of Steve's progress.
I have asked this before and have gotten answers, but there is conflicting information on PY as to which is correct. Lucy is a '72 TA, 455HO, with A/C. Which of these radiators would be the right one? FH with CV and IA tanks... if this is right, where do I get the tags? FP with CV and IF tanks... I have a set of spare CV and IA tanks that I can have restored but want to be sure its right before spending the coin.

I'm glad I read your post. I was going with Adriatic on yours but if you want me to repeat what's on Tim's then Lucerne it is.

WOW that looks great! Steve is working on mine as well. It's not to the painting stage yet so I am tempering my impatience by enjoying your posts.
Thanks, James |

Thanks for the help on the radiator codes... looks like I have the correct tanks. Is anyone making FH radiator tags?
Also, I've got a bunch of pictures and updates to share. I've been slammed trying to wrap up the end of the year, but will try to get some of these posted soon.

The Parts Place makes the reproduction tags. I'm not sure if they have made one for FH yet but I bet they will if we ask them.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/350908920563...84.m1423.l2649 Steve S with MMR knows them pretty well. Steve, can you ask them to make a few of these?
