I'm new to the Forum and could use some help from the group. I have an early (November 67 build) 68 Bronco, original V8 Ranger that I'm installing a Vintage Air Heat, Defrost A/C in. Here's my problem, my 68 has a smaller radiator opening than the 69-77 core support, its 16 3/4" wide by 10 5/8" high from the channel at the bottom of the core support to the channel on the top. I'm guessing this design was a "transitional model change thing. It has full length top to bottom radiator support brackets that need to be cut Like the 69-77 so I can mount the A/C condenser as close to the radiator as possible for best possible airflow through both and to allow for proper A/C supply and return line connection to the condenser. Unlike the 69-77 my 68 doesn't have the 2 stiffener channels spot welded along the each side of the radiator cutout/opening. Anyone know of someone making these stiffeners? I don't want to change out a perfectly good core support and I want to try and maintain as much of the original Ford design.
