Radiator help

[jetlr1]

Has anyone purchased a radiator from LMC Truck? If so, what is the quality and who manufactures their radiators? I have contacted several dealers, and it seems that US Radiator manufactures radiators for most of them. LMC Truck has the best price for a radiator, but the reps who answer the order line do not know who manufactures their radiators. Any advice or information about a radiator for a 1950 F-1 Ford truck will be greatly appreciated.

I bought a V8 radiator a couple years ago for my '51 F1 and for the price I was satisfied with the quality of it. I never had any issues with it. I don't know who manufactures them though??

U.S. Radiator has been around for awhile and if they are the supplier I wouldn't hesitate to buy one. My neighbor got one of their radiators for his '53 Victoria and it was excellent quality and cheaper than others..

Depending on where you are, and what you have. I have had 2 radiators re-cored in the USA. Use the original tanks, the cores are made by Maine Auto radiator in Maine, USA. There are lots of pros out there that do this, and results are 100% top quality USA materials, products and talent. I used Starfish Radiator in Orleans MA. There are other good shops throughout the country, Ohio, PA, Etc. Good luck.
