I have a chance to get a NOS 70 BB Camaro fan shroud, how can I tell if it is really a original one and not a newer replacement or a rebop one?

Hope Im not stealing this thread a bit, but I thought a pic might help....A few years ago, I had pulled my radiator because of a suspected leak. Sure enough the rad had a pin hole. So I took the car to a shop to have the rad. repaired along with some exhaust work that was needed at the time....anyway, the shop insisted that I had the wrong fan shroud and that they could not put the car back together correctly....I went to the shop and my parts were just laying everywhere...anyway, I gathered up my parts and took my car home...I never could get the shroud to fit right, so I thought maybe it got switched with another??the fan shroud is still not on the car after all these years...as I thought they had possibly lost my shroud or something and/or inadvertenly switched it. Ive had the car so long, I always assumed it was the original, but being somewhat a day two type car, you really never know.
Anyway, I went out in the garage and got the shroud and took a few picss.....I must have something else wrong that it does not fit....?? Hope this helps to see what one looks like also... |

Tag? Box? LOL. This from a BIG pile of stuff my B-in law went to look at near some property he was surveying. Nothing was boxed, it was all according to the owners memory.

Thanks, Max [/ QUOTE ] Yes, it looks like your shroud has the corner on the top passenger side cut out. The bottom looks fine, that's to clear the steering box. Do you have a picture of your top metal cover?
