Radiator brackets

Decided on the mounting for the new VW Polo rad

The bottom bracket made with aluminium angle sitting on the chassis radiator mounts. 
The radiator sits in it locating via pegs sitting in grommeted holes.


...and plates at the top which will be bolted to tapped radiator mounting points.

Fan offered up to check the nose clearance.

Update - modified this slightly to give better pipe routing and radiator position.

Plumbing

A picture of hoses to mull over. Top hose will be fine,. Bottom hose will hopefully re-use the existing stainless dog leg pipe, shortened, to get over the steering rack and meet up with the cold outlet currently closed off with blue masking tape.
