Thread: 1950 chev. p/u radiators?

Tweet

1950 chevy pickup... i am pricing aluminum radiators. i know they can be very pricey, but i also know that there is universal ones out there for a pretty fair price. measurements of the stocker is 20 wide, by 23-26 in. does anyone know of any of about that size?

This one is just a tad higher at 27, but maybe it depends on how they measure it. You can't beat this price IMO.

thank you for the reply and so quick!!

another plus.. i work in lincoln on the weekends so its just a quick stop on my way to work! thank you for the good find!

Tim, you just reminded me I had to call PRC to ask them about a radiator for my Dodge truck, so while I was on the phone I asked them about a radiator for your truck. They have one for that model, it is $ 410.00, a shroud is $ 100.00, and a 16 inch SPAL fan is $ 150.00. I have used them probably 4 times already, and each radiator has been like a work of art and cool very well. I've mentioned I can't get my T over 150 going down the road on the hottest day.

Just thought I would throw that out at you. Here is their website in case you want it.

Copper is up right now, probably your best bet. Not sure what they are paying for radiators, but down here thieves are stealing wire and everything else made of copper to turn in for scrap.

Glad to help with that info on the radiator.
