Recommend an Ebay rad for 59 Apache
Can anyone recommend a radiator I can order through Ebay that will be of good quality and good price? I am hoping not to pay $$$$$ for a rad. I am running the stock 235 and prefer a stock look. Thanks for any help.

Re: Recommend an Ebay rad for 59 Apache
Mine is out of a 55 chevy car I think most of the 55-57 will fit
used CL $85 . I steered away from the Aluminum radiator because I'm rough on everything i owne and you can't patch an amuminum radiator .  .

I took mine to a rad shop and had a new modern 4 row core soldered to the original tanks.

Re: Recommend an Ebay rad for 59 Apache
Cool thanks guys. I would have my original restored, but the first shop who torn into my truck didnt include it in my parts heap when I pulled the plug on them and picked up all my stuff in the Uhaul.
I will take a look at those. I never even thought of a car rad option....probably should have though... |

Re: Recommend an Ebay rad for 59 Apache
Is the v8 and I6 rad different? Maybe they mount differently? I found a rad locally, so wondering if that could stand in my way. The Champion looks good, but I think I want to stick with a stock look if I can.
