Ivan: It is so good to hear from you! You are still alive and kicking! I'm 83 now and still working on Austin 7's. I took my present car all apart two years ago, sand blasted everything, and am getting close to driving the car with just the frame and engine, brakes, etc. and hopefully the radiator.

However, since the radiator is bolted on to the body, that may not be possible, or is it? Is has been such a long time since I took the car all apart, I forgot how to mount the radiator. I do have the cow's horns, but not sure ow they attach to the body and radiator shell. There is a piece called the flibit (so something like that), and I don't even know what it looks like.

I don't have the book you mentioned, but I would love to have a copy of some of the pictures or diagrams you mentioned. Would it be possible to email me a copy of them? Here's my email address: petesuzi2014@gmail.com

So good to hear from you, Ivan. What are you working on these days?

Hi, Bill: Really appreciate your suggestions but have some questions. Is the radiator bolted to the shell and not to the frame at all? I assumed that the curve pieces with the boxes fit on to the bottom of the radiator, but what do the box pieces bolt to?

Do you have any photos or diagrams of the radiator support pieces? I think I am missing a piece, and I don't know what it looks like!

Really nice to hear from you. Where do you live?
