I have an early A body radiator I would like some help identifying. The top tank has a stamped number 2445620. It is a slant 6 radiator, but it is a three row and in extremely nice shape. Any help is appreciated.
Yes. It would bolt right in Vixen. I never knew a slant car ever had a three row core, but this one sure does. It's in good enough shape that it may have been recored. The inside of the core looks new.Galens little white book doesn't have that number but most of the 64 radiators listed start with 244, does it have both side brackets the same width? and is it a 19-inch-wide core? Maybe 64 A body HD slant radiator.
If it was recored, the third row wasn't just added. All three rows match perfectly, so either it's an original that's clean as HECK or the core is pretty new.Rusty, it may have been recored with the third row added. That’s what I did with my Duster radiator when it had to be recored.
That shroud looks too slick to not be a factory option. Likely doesn't do much useful since so thin, but worth its weight in gold for the rarity, but long gone since the ad was in 2008.
I think a four row would fit in it. I know it would fit the top tank, as there's still room at the back, but I believe it'd have to have a different bottom tank.A three row core will fit between the tanks. That's what I did to mine.
