Free 2 core radiator for pickup in DFW, TX area

Can anyone use this??
It is a two core radiator that I pulled from my '72 Cutlass. Okay inside and does not leak a drop. The outside is dirty but cleanable. Age is unknown. It does have the AT cooler inside.

I think the 2 core was only used for the earlier 6 cylinder cars. It did cause my 72's 350 to run hot, between 205 and 215 mark. However, she made it home over 1700 miles with it and the temp light never came on (thank goodness...) I did not even know about this until i got her home!!
My car was supposed to have had a 3-core which I just put in and now she runs cool.

If any of you around the Dallas Area want it, it is free - just come get it.
If no takers around here, I may be able to ship it for the price of shipping and packing materials.
I have no use for it and hate to just trash it... New radiators are expensive, too and I would like to be able to help other Olds enthusiasts.
PM me if seriously interested.

Thanks!

Any takers before it goes to the dump?

This would work good as a temporary radiator for a project car that needs a radiator to be mobile but the budget would not allow a new one at the time.
It is made of brass and does not leak.

Take it to your local aluminum can recyclers. You should get at least 10 bucks for it. Maybe more seeing it's brass.
