Hello everyone,
Just registered to this group. Presently I own a 1926 Ford Sedan Delivery that I acquired about one year ago. It was a very nice daily driver that was built as a late 70"s Restro-Rod. The drivetrain is a Buick V6, 350 Turbo Transmission with a 9" Ford disc brake rear end. The front suspension is a 3" dropped tube axle with disc brakes. My future plans is a Jaguar IRS.
Having been a car guy since the 70's as my first one was a 34 Ford sedan and later a 33 Plymouth couple. Presently have a 65 Pontiac 2+2 conv., 87 Fiero GT, as well as a 85 S-10 V8 Blazer. Looking forward to sharing my experience with everyone as well as learning from others.

Nice car. I built a 87 s10 v8, it was a really fun truck, but I had a hard time with cooling in the summer.

Thanks for the welcome.
I have a Corvette radiator as recommended by Jaguars That Run along with an engine driven fan. For extra insurance ther is a dual electric fan setup mounted in front for the extra hot days. Plus the hood is louvered with 6 rows of 3” louvers.

I had the corvette radiator too with the stock clutch fan. I then had a custom brass radiator made that worked better but it still struggled. The louvers are a good idea, always thought the heat was trapped in there.
