65/66 Radiator?

Does anyone know Harrison Radiator with 3005142-R142 tag? I can find factory numbers that are close, but none that match.

I removed it from a '65. It appears to have been re-cored and never run.

Thanks

If it's a down flow,it's a 65,if it's a cross flow,it's a 66. Most OEM radiators had a two letter code on the metal tag. 65 could be different but 66 up has the two letter code.

FWIW, the radiator on my '65 VC has two tags, an "AK" and a "3002346-R146". Tags are on the rad, not the tanks.

Thanks, Mike. Don't know why I put '66. I have a '66 and know it's a cross flow. Probably thinking '64. The tag is embossed and attached to the lip of the core somewhat centered. I originally thought it might be a service radiator, but I couldn't find anything in my parts catalog.

There were some radiators used on the line but were not serviced by GMPD. That could be the answer to the mystery.
