If he's not doing a restoration he may consider doing what i did for my 54. I used a crossflow radiator from a mid 80s Monte Carlo. Its the narrow 3 row type. It has the same dimensions as stock, but does require some mods to make i fit in the slot. Since the tanks are on the sides, a little clearance is needed in the "U" channel that holds the old rad. Also, a rubber flap is needed at the top of the rad to keep the air frot flowing over the top of the rad while driving. Hoses were off the shelf items from the auto parts store. salstude@aol.com (SALSTUDE) Jun 2003
