Default 67 radiator support question

What is the difference between the 64 and 67 radiator support? I need one for a 67 non air but a guy has one for a 64. I know the 66 and 67 or different but not sure what it is. Thanks

Going from poor memory.....assuming you have original 327 equipment being used....the radiator support for a 64 will mount in a 67 without modification. The 67 radiator will mount in the 64 support without modification. However, the 64 used a metal fan shroud that I believe had 3 mounting screws on each side into the radiator support. The 67 fan shroud is fiberglass and has two mounting screws on each side of the shroud going into the support....I do not know if the holes would line up. Measure and see. I guess you could drill holes in the support to match the 67 fan shroud or use the 64 fan shroud.

The '66-'67 radiator support is mounted at a more pronounced rearward angle (top tilted back), so you'll need to use a '66-'67 fan shroud.

So I guess I'll just wait to find the correct support since my shroud is good. Thanks John
