Can I get somebody to give me the actual dimensions of the 1951 1/2 ton radiator? AND does anyone know if there are compatable swaps that will fit in the radiator housing besides the original? thanks.

Jim,

I'm putting a '64-66 Mustang radiator into my '54 truck. I don't have the original radiator and my radiator support is a little cut up, so I can't say for sure if this would work with a stocker, but I think it would. Best part is that a heavy duty Mustang radiator can be had for about $150 shipped from eBay. Aluminum ones are less than $300.


Hope this helps,
Ed

Jim, I picked up a radiator for my '54 chevy 1-ton. You can get a new 2 row 1 inch tubing aluminum radiator from Air Mobile in Phoenix, Arizona. I think I paid $450 for it. They paid shipping. Their supposed to be better than Griffin radiators. I also run NPG+ for coolant, no water. You can get this from Evans Cooling. Air Mobile goes to the Good Guys shows.
Hope some of this helps,
Dave
