Hi every body, I'm a new member on PH and I'm coming from Belgium (... it's why my english is not on the top).

I'm restoring my TVR Vixen 1300 from 1972 and I have no radiator for her.
The car has a spare wheel holder under the bonnet but I think the chassis (which was new when I bought the car) is not a M because he is made with only round tubes (see pics).
I have put a 1600 xflow burton 711 engine in the car.
I've seen that normally, the radiator take his place just behind the spare wheel holder but I'ld prefer to put it as on M series, just behind the bonnet air intake.
So, now I'm looking for a good radiator to refresh the engine. 3000M alloy radiator, ...
Or maybe a new one coming from an other brand but fitting good with some little work ?

This is what I have. But no spare wheel under the bonnet.

Not sure about your car but these look like they fit other vixens.
Regards.
