If you know an old time radiator shop, then can remove and manipulate the brackets in such a way as to move that radiator as far forward as possible. They could even raise the core up a tad, so that the top tank joint would be above that kicked back part of the support. That would allow you to move the radiator even further forward. Since you obviously cannot drive it to a shop, you're going to have to take very accurate measurements so they can get it right. It's damn near gonna be easier to just buy another radiator if you can swing it. ....and I fully agree that a two row with either 1" or 1.25" rows will not only probably cool better, but certainly fit better. Problem is, you're going to need to see HOW the brackets are welded on before you buy. It's a conundrum for sure.
