I got a new radiator from the junkyard the other day. I didn't see what they pulled it out of, but it's definitely not the same as my '95 wagon's. it's a little narrower, and the fan shrouds are made of metal, not plastic. the trans cooler lines and the inlet and outlet for coolant are the same, but there's no way thefans from mine would have bolted up, even if I could have unbolted them from the old radiator.
So... can someone with a 1st gen take a picture of their fans for me, or something? I have zip ties holding it in place for now, but I'd like to try and make some mounting brackets eventually, as the stock bracket from my car doesn't come close to fitting.

It's from a 1st gen, I've helped do a water pump on a 1st gen and saw the metal fan shrouds with my own eyes

Well, that makes sense. One of the things I heard over the conversation was something about a '93 wagon.
But it all fits where it counts, and the zip ties are holding it where it doesn't.
