What is the common name in Australia for a “kit” of used parts (typically fresh off a single donor) comprising radiator, fan/shroud, condenser and possibly PAS cooler?
For example, Fleabay item: 313531530554 |

Is this a serious question or do we reply with funny answers ?

Funny answers are fine. Spike Milligan was someone I admired.
It is a serious question, though. |

Often there seems to be shorthand terminology, eg “security set” or “airbag kit”.

We used to do nose cuts back in the day, we would pull the guards off and cut it through the skirts and rails, comprising of rad support, bumper, headlights, grille, ac condenser, radiator and fans, just add bonnet and guards for full front. |

That’s helpful. It’s more descriptive of what I’m actually assembling.
The Germans seem to refer to a cooling package, I thought it might have been something like that. |

cooling pack.
typically contains rad, condenser, intercooler and fan/shroud but not any hoses etc. typically these days all those parts clip together into one unit and are assembled as one |
