71-73 Mustang Radiator AT 26in Dual 12in Fans

The 71-73 Mustang Radiator AT 26in Dual 12in Fans from COLD CASE RADIATORS is purpose-built for first-generation Mustang owners who demand reliable cooling under demanding driving conditions. Whether you're cruising classic car shows or pushing your pony car through summer traffic, thermal management is non-negotiable—and this aluminum core radiator paired with dual electric fans ensures your engine stays within safe operating temperatures. Classic Mustang cooling systems often struggle with modern traffic and underhood heat loads, making this upgrade essential for street-driven vehicles.

This 26-inch radiator features a robust aluminum construction designed to handle the thermal demands of inline-six and V8 engines common in 1971–1973 Mustangs. The dual 12-inch electric fan configuration provides independent cooling control, allowing fans to operate on demand rather than relying on a mechanical fan clutch that wastes horsepower and generates parasitic drag. The AT (automatic transmission) specification accounts for transmission fluid cooling requirements, which is critical when running vintage automatics under load. Cold Case Radiators engineered this core with modern manufacturing precision while respecting original fitment and mounting points, ensuring bolt-in compatibility without fabrication.

Restoration enthusiasts and weekend warriors alike benefit from this radiator's efficient thermal transfer and compact footprint that preserves engine bay aesthetics. The dual fan design is particularly advantageous for automatic transmission models, where transmission coolers demand additional cooling capacity. Installation requires basic mechanical skills and standard hand tools; the 48-pound assembly mounts securely using factory-style brackets, making this an accessible upgrade that doesn't require extensive rewiring or custom fabrication. At 16 x 26 x 36 inches, it integrates seamlessly into original 1971–1973 Mustang engine bays.
