Post by: emptynestersx2 on November 18, 2006, 01:58:21 PM

Well here it goes ! I just bought a 75 Mustang II v-8 doner car, mostly complete for $400.00.Probably to much since I dont get the rear end or spindles.my 77 cruisin wagon already has a 8in. in it.Theres also no radiator.Any body know what other radiators will work? I'm going to take pics as I go. TJ.

A V6 Pinto radiator should work with a couple of electric fans infront. Not my first choice but I have seen it done to a 302 and worked just as good.

I still have the V-6 radiator, so I'll give that a try. Unfortunately its now probably going to be spring before I get that far. I don't have a garage. Thanks for the info.I'm going to try to borrow a friends garage so I can make some head way. Thanks again.
