Depends. Which year 1500 are you referring too? Early 1500s
had a small radiator, later ones went to a larger one. The
change was made in 1976 if I recall correctly. I've got the
larger one in my '73, and it finally keeps its cool at higher
air temperatures. I think that the early rads are a little
smaller than the later ones. The radiators changed again in
'79 when they reclined them.
