Radiator numbers or ID

[Chris L.]

Trying to find the numbers on a radiator I took out of a 67 Bloomington Gold and TOp Flight car. Where is the ID on the redaitor and how can I tell if it is the original?

Sorry..bigblock 427/390. The radiator has Harrison in 2 places, and it is a 4 core, but there are no numbers or tags anywhere. This was in the car when it went thru TOp Flight and Bloomington Gold in 1992. It scored 99.1 in Flight judging.

THis one eveidently fell off as thee are no signs that I can see of one ever being there. Points wise, I haven't got a clue. WHo is more critical...Flight judges or Bloomington judges? Would this radiator be worth anything to anyone?

Re: Radiator numbers or ID

When I judge NCRS and Bloomington Gold, if I see no sign of a tag, I deduct. I don't need to read it although I try. It's a minimal deduction but the folks with the tags should get credit, in my opinion.

Agreed Mark, but at NCRS a missing tag can not be worth more than a point or two which wouldn't mean a whole lot in the 4500 point scheme of things unless a lot of other issues are present.
