Hello Dave, when you say a McLaren radiator, what size do you need and what for. I don't have one.However the radiator on my roller is very similar to a bus radiator from the manufacter, Daimler benz. As you might well know McLaren was bought by Daimler Benz and therefore you might look at bus clubs for your source. Hope this is of some use.

McLaren was not taken over by Daimler Benz, but produced diesel engines to their designs under licence. McLaren was bought out in 1943 by a company that became Associated British Oil Engines.

Thanks chaps.

I need to double check if the rad we have has the badge separately. As with the thread in the tech section i will need to get the info and come back later.

Thanks again.
