Best place to get a new radiator for 1959 Edsel Ranger 361 V8? Toying with buying new or having mine repaired. much thanks
There might be some interchange between your Edsel and the '58 & '59 Fords even if not mentioned in a catalog. Someone here will know for sure. -Dave
This is what they show but don't know for sure if it will fit. The measurements look right. Anyone tried the Ford radiator?

Spooky, I tried it and it didn't fit. Had to ship it back. My fan would hit the tank on the upper passenger side relief. I ended up rebuilding mine for 150$ here in town. I have the 361 V8 if that helps any.
Re building an orig radiator around here is expensive. I just had an O/T 70 Road runner one done and it was $750. Yeah probably got ripped off. Lippy
