If you are looking for a well priced excel radiator, I got a brilliant Aluminium radiator from eBay £200 inc delivery from China
It has to be uprated tho, The one that you bought might not be enough :(

Hi, might be interested in some parts, do you still have the front brake upgrade, diff and possibly any internal door handle parts? Am looking for the plastic inner cover, both sides which screws to the door with a single philips screw?

Well I will have a supercharger that will generate 200C under the bonnet ;) And a few extras in front of the radiator.
That means that I won't buy anything that I am not sure about, perhaps it will work perhaps not.

Looking at the build quality I would trust the aluminium one over the original. Especially just before I changed it. :wink:

Do you still have the modified prop shaft? Fitting at Lt77 box into my '85 excel with a 3.9 tuned motor. If prop available please can you quote me price & location. Thanks
