Re: Slat radiator
Check the size of the picture and if too large reduce it in one of your programs that does that. Preview for Mac and ? for *PC.
* I used to know PC but for some reason I left it and now can't remember what I used. Doh!

Re: Slat radiator
Rhinomil,
This is what a correct early slat radiator looks like. It has three ribs, the third rib is in midline with the fill hole on top. A Ford GPW radiator looks similar, but the third rib is to the outboard/left side of the fill hole, thus not in line.

Re: Slat radiator
The Slat 3 rib radiator was used up until MB 108452. That DOD was around 01 Jan, 1942.Mark Jes wrote:Does any one know what date they changed the radiator to the standard one ??

Re: Slat radiator
Was that the date when the air deflectors changed, according to Nabholtz, and not necessarily the radiator? I have evidence of a 5 tab radiator with turn up swaging in the tabs and with plain sides in a mid December Willys MB. We have to remember that Willys was an assembly plant and subcontracted to more than one supplier for components.
