sworsey Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 I'm looking for, and willing to pay decent $$ for a Pre 1975 R series or F series Mack Radiator. Doesn't have to be in good condition? Will pay premium $$ if it has original felt type gasket material between top tank and core header.Sean Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/12522-looking-for-vintage-mack-radiators/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
fifth wheel Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Why is the gasket so special? Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/12522-looking-for-vintage-mack-radiators/#findComment-49011 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Now this a strange request but there is not enough information offered. What type of truck are you needing this from? Noting that you are from California, are you needing a radiator from a "Western" Mack, or standard Mack as the core width, and length are different. I cannot fathom someone wanting to reuse this gasket as they are mashed flat and will not provide a dependable seal to a fresh core without a lot of silicone. This offers a marginal and temporary repair at best.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.
