Hello everyone....
I just joined this forum yesterday on advice from my father. He recently gave me his 1958 TR3a that has been in our family for about 30 years. I grew up with this car and am excited to receive it. It is being shipped from PA to Florida as I type. I cannot wait to continue "working" on the car and enjoying it as I did with my father, and as he did with his father (my grandfather).
I have a quick question about a radiator. The car is pretty much all original.... runs great, but it is coming down here to the hot florida weather. The radiator is original which means its about 60 years old. It's going to be the first thing I replace and I was wondering what my best options are. Should I go with something straight out of Moss Motors Magazine?? Anyone else have a TR3 that is living in the hot florida sun?? I'm guessing an electric cooling fan wouldn't hurt.... i'm just looking for some ideas.
Thanks! hope to become a pretty steady user of this forum.
