48 Special radiator
« on: February 17, 2013, 11:59:13 PM »
I know that many of the engine parts on kaisers were made by other companies, but what about the radiator. Does anyone know about a replacement radiator from another car from the time?

The 1955 Hollander Manual shows 47-48 Kaiser and Frazer radiator as #496.    49-50 Kaiser and 49-51 Frazer as #554. They don't show these two numbers interchanging with each other or with any other cars.  Hope this helps.

Sorry, the 1947-48 (they will swap out but 1947 had better core design) are unique to themselves.  They were made by Fedders.
