Sprint radiator mounting bolts

#1 Post by simonhorton »

I'm restoring my Sprint ( 1973 )
When fitting the radiator , I noticed that the passengers side lower captive nut is missing from the front panel

It looks like there was never one there , is this common on all models , or just sprints ?

So only have 3 bolts holding radiator in place

Many thanks

No afraid not..

Always 4...

The bolts are special and have a way of cutting through the crud...so they dont seize up.
