Thanks guys! Both Brassworks and US Radiator list original style radiators in their on line catalogs. Also thank you Alan for the useful info regarding stiffening the upper tank top surface to reduce the possibility of seam failure.

Karl - Thanks for posting the super-informative photos and dimensioned diagram. Do you by any chance have similarly dimensioned photos of the pivoting backrest spring wood frame and/or seat cushion spring wood frame for a '36 coupe seat? That would also be great information.
