Whatever.
Who can tell me what radiator will fit my 1951 3800. 1/2-ton? 2-ton? COE? I'd like to know what to look for without a measuring tape.
1951 3800 Be the change you want to see. -hotshoe

What about 47 - 53 GMC radiators? Seems to me that the cowl is what's different there ...

This got more attention before it was moved from General Truck Talk, which I think it is.

hotshoe36,
When you added GMC (not A-D, ND New Design, 47-55) to the question, that factor limited responses more than the change of forum.
What year/size GMC Radiator are you referring to? What is the thickness of the GMC radiator? If the GMC radiator is thicker than the small-truck Chevrolet radiator, you might have fan-clearance problems.
