Can anyone tell me if the bottom hose on a Taimar is from a Capri mk1?

I guess it depends on which type of radiator you have. If you have the low slung wide type - no. In that case use 2 rubbers & a connector tube, instead of the long rubber hose.
My Taimar has this type

If you have the taller Rad ( mounted quite close to the engine) & I believe this is a Capri radiator.... it may be the Same. I don‘t know, in this case.

Sorry, that‘s the end of my brain dump.

Thanks, asking for a friend who hasn't got internet at the moment, hopefully someone knows as it's the later big radiator.

I suspect it is a 'special'?

it curves quite tightly around the chassis, obviously a Capri hasn't got a chassis to curve around.


Try Neil @ http://www.tvrservices.co.uk/?fbclid=IwAR1v5BPbk7F...

Or Andrew @ https://www.tvrpre80sparts.com/swanson-1

It certainly looks nothing like either of these . . . . . .
