Yet another Stage One V8 obsolete part brought back to life by us!

The Stage One has a unique radiator which was not used on any other LR model. A couple of companies have tried to recreate it in Aluminium which looks nice but they dont seam to last.

We have stuck to the original cooper and brass construction. With all the correct mounting points and fan cowl brackets. The core is slightly larger which will give better flow and help keep the V8 cool, especially in hotter climates.

These are brass with a copper cores like the originals and a direct fit.

Now we just need to sit down and work out all the costs and go and collect them from the finishers.
