R D Thompson,
If you don't find one ready to use, I do have one but it needs some work. I am in New Brunswick for a couple of weeks, but when I get back to Maine I can take some pictures of it.

Robert,
I have not really looked at it in recent years. I bought it to use in my TF about 40 years ago but never used it because I found another that looked better. It doesn't have any accident damage or anything like that. I will photograph it when I get back home and email you what I know about it.

When I was in Kuala Lumpur last year, I went to a shop where they make aluminium radiators for ANY car, including a Td they had in the shop. Looked pretty good to me. They had added a little capacity, a fitting for a temp bulb, and brackets for an oil radiator. I should have made a note of their coordinates, but forgot.

However, you might be interestd in a affordable aluminium radiator from China ... see:- https://www.ebay.com/itm/Aluminum-Radiator-Fit-MG-TF-1953-1955-1-3L-1-5L/163657479310?fits=Model%3ATF%7CMake%3AMG&hash=item261abef48e:g:RfwAAOSw6JZcuoZX

I don’t understand what the hole is next to the filler cap.

I don’t think my radiator has that hole.

The core in mine was damaged by the fan in an accident years ago, I had it rebuilt with a 4 row core and it never overheats! Of course the engine block water passages were cooked and scrubbed clean also. PJ
