Upper Radiator Support
I'm looking for a skilled hand to fabricate an upper radiator support. I have an 84 Trans Am with a Griffin radiator. If interested I can supply photos and measurements. I'm looking for quality work and have no problem financially compensating someone for their time.

Re: Upper Radiator Support
I would prefer aluminum, polished would be even better. As far as ideas, I just need to keep it simple. Something like the one pictured below.

Re: Upper Radiator Support
Do a search I posted a cad file for a nice holed one for people to use here. It fits the champion rads but it may fit that griffin rad with some work
this is it: (ver1, I'm using ver2 on my red car but can't find the file I have for it)

Re: Upper Radiator Support
Thanks Twin_Turbo, your method of supporting the radiator by the top frame is what I need. I'll search for your file, but I'll still need someone to make the magic happen.
**EDIT** I found a file for version 2 (attached), is this the version in your photo Twin_Turbo?
