My original 32 v-8 radiator needs to be replaced according to radiator shop. Engine is a 59ab. There are some leaks in radiator that don't warrant fixing according to rad shop.Not really willing to quote a recore charge for it.
So, need to find a replacement. I'm familiar with Walker radiators, but before buying that brand, wondering if there are some good alternatives out there?
 
If you are doing something close to restoration I've used Walker because of their availability reliability and fit.. Also Brass Works will build you a radiator that is about as close to original as possible and they also fit good and work well. I've never used a US Radiator so can't comment. I'm personally not a fan of aluminum radiators although I know their popular and lower priced. Back to Walker, I've sold a bunch with no comebacks.
 
Lou - if you decide to part with your original '32 V8 radiator, let me know. Thanks, Strick from Marietta, GA
