    I know here there are a few real radiator shops that'll recore or put on new tanks. Hell they'll fab a custom radiator if they have to. Might be worth a try.

    that's what I was thinking, gotta be back on the road by thurs. so it's a little wider than the Buick and the top inlet in on the left instead of the middle on the Buick radiator

    hey i am using a 4 core Walker rad in my 51 buick. its quality stuff. however, i had to relocate it in front of the rad support to clear the fan. go figure it should have bolted on. but i like it none the less.
