    I bought this radiator from eBay to fit in my 1935 Dodge truck (eBay item number:301852127518) and it works great. It evens has trans cooler built in.
    Get the total measurements for your truck and see if this one will fit. I installed a fan on the front side, no room with the Chevy 5.3, and I use an adjustable fan
    thermostat. It never gets over 185, that's my thermostat setting.

    I can't be a lot of help at the moment about as far as I've gotten is taking a couple of rough of measurements and looking at universal hot rod radiators (aluminum) to see whats out there.
    By the way, welcome, I for one would really like to see and hear about what you're working on.
    Read post #10, it still applies....

    Thanks Bodie and Richard. I ended up using this one for a first generation mustang.

    2row Aluminum Radiator for 1964 1966 Ford Mustang V8 260 289 at MT 1965 64 65 66 | eBay


    I actually finished up the installation yesterday.

    It took a fair amount of trimming the mounting brackets to get it to set in the grill shell far enough but on the bright side a stock (reproduction) fan shroud bolted right up. I had thought about running an electric fan but the cross brace for the grill shell was in the way (and is a pretty important structural piece).

    I’m still a ways from firing it up to see how well it cools, but at least it’s in.

    I've NEVER seen a car come from the factory that couldn't be improved.....
