Radiator dims
DaveFJ - 7/9/04 at 03:00 PM

Could someone let me know the dimensions for a radiator to fit in an Avon. I don't have the bodywork yet so can't worki it out for myself.

I am looking at getting an alloy Polo radiator but there are apparently 3 different sizes so i need to be sure......

Cheers

If anyone can find the right radiator from the pics on this website that would be a start

The one that Surry Dave has used fits in the Avon nose cone as I gave him the part number!

Get one bought, it cools my 2L VX very well, when I can keep the water in the pipes!

Graham, is your rad different to mine?

Viper

intriguingly the your radiator is out of a 1.9 diesel Polo according to that website.....

As it turns out the ones i was looking at (on eBay) are slightly different and have a wedge shaped chamber at one end

Viper, looks very much like mine

Protofj, I don't think that'll fit!
