Polo rad in GTS nosecone?
Micael - 10/9/04 at 01:00 PM

I've just bought a nosecone from GTS. Does anyone knows if a Polo rad fits under it? I have a standard book chassie.

Cheers

I hope so I! I have Darren's lw line bodywork and am picking up my polo rad on saturday morning. I'm not envsaging any problems (but then I never do til it's too late!)

Surrey Dave has fitted one to a standard locost nosecone, so I'm not worried, it WILL fit !

Sounds good, Ned

Then I go for a polo rad and as you said, It WILL fit.

All these people using the Polo rad, cool!

Yes it does.

I have some little brackets made up for the demo car which carries the radiator nicely. I would make more up if people are interested.

I like that colour yellow by the way Micael. I think Johans car will look really cool. I might start offering that in preference to lemon yellow as i think its a bit classier.

Kind regards,

Darren

When are we meeting for the tank?

Yepp, like the color very much, even the girls in the checkin desk at the airport liked the color.

Nosecone fits like a glove on the chassie.

Micael,
Yes I agree it will indeed fit as you can see below, although I had to tweak the nosecone just slightly... (Should help to get rid of excess heat!)

Don't worry, my chassis is a Mcsorley 7+4" and the radiator is the larger of the polo radiators which is also fitted to the Passat and some Golf models.

Cheers,
Craig.

You had me there for a second!
I thinked -I don't want to cut my nosecone in half.
