I bought a radiator off ebay that was supposed to be for a 76 midget. Well it looks nothing like the one that I have in the car now...lol. This on looks like an older down flow model but I can't be sure as I've never seen one personally. This radiator is 15 inches across and about 18 inches tall. It is about 2 inches thick and has heads on the top and bottom. It also has the radiator cap stuck out on a neck at the upper head. I've attached a picture. The radiator is in excellent shape and I would probably sell it to someone who can use it but I have to know what it will fit first. Any help is appreciated...lol

Yeah I am pretty sure it is an older downflow model. I wish that if someone had one of these that they would compare the measurements to the one I bought. The picture of the down flows from moss almost looks too thick? I would love to sell it to someone who can use it but am scared of misrepresenting it. The radiator looks to be in excellent shape. I'm kinda bummed that I can't use it...lol

I'm guessing it's some kind of replacement for the older downflow radiator. I checked the one on my 67 Midget, it's 15 inches across and 18 inches tall, but mine has a fan shroud built in and the upper radiator hose attachment point seems a little different. The side attachment points seem about in the right place compared to mine. Good luck.
 
Thanks Gunner,
I thought that the moss and VB pictures looked like there was some kind of shroud built onto the older downflows. Guess I'll just list it as unknown for now. Maybe someday I will be able to identify it...lol.
