Hey Keith,... where'd you get the radiator? (part number?) Is it a custom radiator or a direct fit for our trucks. My '69 needs one.

I got it off ebay........it's a Entropy Radiator and it's made for the 67-72 trucks it can be bought with or without the fans. Just do a search on ebay for entropy and it should pull them up.

very clean looking, how did you do your mounting points?

The top mount (radiator cover) has four 10/32 bolts that bolt to the core support between the radiator and the mount...a pain to mount but hopefully I'll only have to do this once after it's done

On the bottom of the fan shroud it has a plate that slides under the radiator and it has three mounts that attach to the radiator. In the picture you should see three screws that attach the fan shroud to the upper mount (no way to hide, no way to get your hand back there). Does this make any sense?

Actually, it's kind of hidden in plain sight. Since you'll look into the compartment from in front of the radiator, you won't really notice the 3 small attachment points. Color the hardware like the surrounding panel, & they'll really blend in.

What's the schedule this weekend? Getting in any quality time or doing the family thing?

Any more thoughts on our 'incognito' ventilation project?

68 short step · 11-26-2009, 02:31 PM

ya i think i know what you're saying... on the top, the bolts go in from the fwd side (bolt head is facing twds the front of the truck)..... not really to clear on the bottom mount, but thats ok...i was more instrested in the top disign....again man, it looks realy clean, and looks great.... im with scoti on the fan shround mounting hardware, wont be noticed, unless you "look" for it...

VA72C10 · 12-22-2009, 11:28 PM

Trying to keep a stock look under the hood, AC and heater hoses will run through the box once I'm done with it.

No need for jealousy... Keith ordered this kit for his Square Body a while back. He was having me hold onto it until I finished up the new rear kit for the 73-87's and ship it all at once. Fortunately it wasn't too difficult to talk him into throwing it on Hazel.

**67cheby** · 12-23-2009, 06:27 PM

Geez i got BUSTED, it really wasnt that long just 2 weeks !!

lowdownstar · 12-23-2009, 08:17 PM

**STP67-72** · 12-23-2009, 08:41 AM

Hey Keith
Truck is looking good. I had a feeling when you started smoothing out the core support out it might get serious. Your buddy is correct about you want be happy the way it was. Good luck. Let me know if you need any more goodies.
