Has any one purchased the radiator support from Dennis Carpenter. I am considering getting one as mine is still repairable but it would take some time.
I know it is probably a "some what close to original" as for as fitting where the original was since it is "foreign made". The cab supports that I just received are a somewhat close fit but will need some work that I can handle.
There were originally two supports from Ford.
F100/250 4X2 w/o Super Cool package was one.
F350,F100/250 4X2 with Super Cool, and F100/250 4X4 took the other.
I only saw one listed on DC's web site. And it's not available.
C7TZ-16138-A = F100/250 4X2 w/o Super Cool package was one.
C7TZ-16138-B = F350, F100/250 4X2 with Super Cool, and F100/250 4X4 took the other.

Radiator Core Support 1967 - 72: C7TZ-16378-A
Super Cooling radiator support has a larger opening radius, because the Super Cooling radiator is higher (approx. 24 1/8") than the standard, extra cooling and A/C radiators (approx. 19 3/4").
Super Cooling radiator has a HUGE top tank, it's wider and deeper than the other radiators.
I could not find any good bump Rad supports at the JYs/PnP so used one from a 75 that only needed a few holes drilled plus cut one for the square J bolt nut hole hood latch.
But need to find one same as yours the way it mounts your type of radiator from the front or the rear mounting.
Thanks guys for the feed back.
My radiator support is basically in one piece and repairable. It just has a few rust outs at the bottom. In 75 I replaced the original 360 radiator with one from a E350 ambulance because I had converted to a 460. I will probably take it and the fender aprons to Jackson, Ms. to the paint stripper who also has a de-rusting and E coating service. After that I will patch up the holes and have them powder coated.
I cleaned an used Por-15 on the front an backsides, then used seal sealer on the joints where any water or acid could run down an get inside. I also treated the inside the best, I could with a latex anti rust in a Huston pump up sprayer.
