That's a score!! Where were you a month ago - I just paid $800 Canadian to have my '39 rad re-cored! The '41 'looks' identical?? It made a big difference in the 'cooling performance' of the car. (along with a new water pump and T-stat, etc.) Anybody that is even thinking about upgrading their cooling circuit should look closely at this.

I have had this radiator for over 4 years and tried to sell on
Ebay with no results. Decided to put it on forum to see if it will sell
I was going to use it in my 41 Packard Street Rod Convertible, but it wouldnt work with Fatman Subframe I used. Maybe I have it priced too low
Will make someone a very good radiator.

$400 was more 'priced to sell'.... $500 is okay, but you may find you'll sit on it for quite a while. $800 CDN is about $590 US, so with shipping, it would be a wash.... just sayin'

I did not tealize the exchange rate between Canada and
USA was so much. I lowered price back to $400.00

As I recall, a 1941 radiator would not work in a 1939. There were many differences to the front and 1939 used the grill shutters while 1941, at least on the 110 and 120, had an in-line thermostat and I believe it also had a smaller upper tank designed to handle a tiny bit more pressure while 1939's was low, or even no pressure.

IIRC the 1941 "120" used a 4? psi radiator cap.

Yeah, like I said, it only 'looks' identical. My '39 is no pressure and now that you mention it Don, yes I do have the shutter T-stat mechanism in mine. Regardless, $400 is decent value for basically a new rad for anyone 'in the market'.
And yes, the Canadian/US $$ conversion is most annoying. A few years back, it was the other way around, but the greenback has crept back up and Canucks are forking out over 30% on the dollar for exchange. It REALLY adds up!!!
