There was windshield and frame on Trademe last week (red). I can't find it just now. I think he wanted $300 or something reasonable. Keep an eye out for relisting.

Good effort. Hopefully no injuries to occupants.

Can you put a mesh over the back of the rad to protect it in the event of contact with the whirly thingee.

electric fans with a cutoff switch would work too

how hard is it to mount the radiator in the back ... best way to do it ...cheers

[shortylux]

No first hand experience for you (I'm currently mounting mine in the back) but everyone I have talked to says the engine water pump will do the trick in most cases. They also have said make sure you have bleed ports at various high points as bleeding all the air out can be a trick. Others have said they had no trouble with it.
Search, there are a few good threads on it. I think there was a few on pirate as well.

[shortylux]

Opps. Double post.
