I recently came across a fan shroud I believe is from a late 50's early 60's Chevy. I cannot find any markings on it. Does anyone know how far about the bolts holes should be for these years? I measured my '57 V8 truck and find 25 1/4 from center to center on the radiator bolt holes. This one is 27 1/4 center to center. Thanks in advance

the late 50's/60's car shroud is slightly wider than the truck rad and the hole spacing down each side is slightly different, probably that's what you have - if it looks like this .... it works with a bit of fudging, but on a 57 you could move the rad back like the factory did and fab the sheet metal top and bottom

that one came from a 62-64 sedan, the circular part is identical to what the 58/9 truck used
