Re: [AMC-list] 63-66 Classic 232 radiator and fan shroud

[wrambler242@xxxxxxxxxxx]

I don't doubt they are different due to body length changes. 
   Now that I have had time to think about it. I don't have proof that the shroud I have is even correct for the 65! It was in the trunk of the flood car along with misc other mud covered debris. Could be something tossed in when they cleaned up after the flood. There was a GM air cleaner housing in there along with the Rambler stuff.

IIRC that shroud is metal, not fiberglass (the one for the 232, open on the bottom). At least the one for my 63 196 was, and it should be the same (looks identical). The one for the V-8 is probably deeper, further from the radiator. This one is somewhere around 1-2" deep. Could be trimmed to fit a bigger fan, but the depth will probably relegate it to six cylinders. Should work in an American too. I think that's why it's open on the bottom -- fan is put on first, then the shroud is installed by slipping over the fan.

That shroud looks different from my 65 327 shroud, should anyone be thinking
it may fit a 327/287 car, it may not work.
   My 65 990H car had a full circle type fiberglass shroud, not open on the
bottom as that one is. I know for sure as mine is cracked and needs a repair
to be full circle again.
   I'd consider selling mine if anyone needs one.
I will probably go with electric fans on the conv.
