I know this has been talked about before but I'll ask again.
Last Fall I installed a new aluminum radiator in my 55 so now I have this heavy old stock radiator taking up space in my garage. Is the original stock radiators worth anything or should I just scrap it out? :confused0006: Anybody interested?

TV someone restoring a 55 to original may have a use for the radiator. Put it in the classifieds and see if you get any bites on it.

I'd say yes, take some pics so we can see the numbers/date code etc.

The radiator has been painted about a dozen times so where might I find the numbers or date code? I will send some pics this weekend.

Date code to left....P/N to right...Should be able to see them, even through a few layers of paint.
