Re: 56 gmc Radiator

What did it come out of? If it is rare the value is in the upper and lower tanks, the core can be replaced. But you would need to find someone doing a number matching corrrect restoration because replacement ones are pretty inexpensive.

I had a number of TF, 74 truck and Chevelle radiators. I ended up scrapping the TF and 74's, no one wanted them even for just the scrap value. I kept the tanks for the 64 since it is date coded to match my car and one day I might put it back in.

It looks like a 6 cyl rad. I would have to see the rad suport to know for sure. It is also from a 55. I think the F is for June. Who makes GMC rads ? I was not able to find them in the past. Had to recore the ones I had.
