    Econoline Radiator Empty Econoline Radiator

    Well, after having researched where to get a radiator that will fit our Econolines I finally found one. The 1965 Mustang with 200 Six cyl. radiator is the same dimensions as the Econoline radiator. The only problem is the brackets are reversed as the Mustang application bolts to the inside of the radiator support. The Econolines bolt to the outside of its radiator support. The solution is to either remove the mounting brackets and switch left to right and right to left, which will void the warranty or make 2" bushings for the new longer bolts and bolt it in. You may have to drill new holes in your radiator support and use new speed nuts but at least it is looks stock and it is a 3 row instead of a 2 row. It also comes with the fittings for the transmission cooling lines if you have an automatic. Part number at Advance Auto Parts is 433251.
