June 3, 201113 yr Author comment_357708 Oh, I didn't know there was a metal piece. I guess both if they're attached.Greg Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/39781-rubber-piece-on-top-of-radiator-core-support/#findComment-357708 Share on other sites More sharing options...
June 3, 201113 yr comment_357719 The metal piece is shaped as a reverse of the underside of the hood and the rubber strip slips on the metal and seals to the underside of the hood. I have the metal will have to look to see if I have the rubber. I am sure that the rubber seal is a standard piece that can be cut to length. jlp Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/39781-rubber-piece-on-top-of-radiator-core-support/#findComment-357719 Share on other sites More sharing options...
June 4, 201113 yr comment_357731 A mod for better aerodynamics and cooling is to box in the front of the radiator to the grill; top, bottom and sides if you really want to seal things up Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/39781-rubber-piece-on-top-of-radiator-core-support/#findComment-357731 Share on other sites More sharing options...
June 4, 201113 yr comment_357732 You don't list the year of your car, and if it's one of the earlier ones it didn't get that weatherstrip piece or medal ridge. If memory serves it was on the 73's and later.FWIWE Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/39781-rubber-piece-on-top-of-radiator-core-support/#findComment-357732 Share on other sites More sharing options...
June 4, 201113 yr comment_357742 Right, the 240 does not use, or have provisions for the rubber seal over the radiator. My 280 does.

June 4, 201113 yr comment_357781 On my '73 the rubber part in front is the same as the rubber part at the rear and is available from Black Dragon.Cheers, Mike Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/39781-rubber-piece-on-top-of-radiator-core-support/#findComment-357781 Share on other sites More sharing options...
