66 67 3 core radiator

Looking for 3 core ac / hd cooling stock radiator for a 66-67 Cutlass.

Can be in "re-corable" condition.

Thanks.

I've got several that would fit, may not have the factory codes for your car. Here's a link to the parts for sale ad I created a while back. John

I'd be interested in one that would fit. I am not quite sure what code I would need. I will try the wildaboutcars resource later on, but harrison tanks with no stamped numbers, or even the wrong numbers, would probably be ok. My current auto zone special doesn't let the cap fit well, you have to fit the edge under the lip of the radiator top hold down plate. If the radiator we decide on is indeed confirmed busted, the sawzall method of shipping would be ok.

Thanks.

If your not concerned about the codes I'm sure I've got some Harrison radiators that would fit. Attached are photos of my 1967 Cutlass and how the factory radiator fill looks. I'll take some measurements to be sure and send you some photos of an extra one that would work. John

a '67 delta radiator will just fit also, you will need to modify the top and bottom mounts though. they had a higher fins per inch count. iirc, it was ~double for a factory radiator.

Bill, thanks. I'll try the A body one first, but that's an alternative.

Blue, those are awesome pictures. My advance auto one, wish I had a picture, has the cap not tilted as much, so the ear of the cap goes under that plate as it goes by.

The assembly manual is a little vague, but it seems like VW, VX, VM, and VU were used codes out of a bunch of V and some other letter codes. I can't seem to figure it out. Maybe the car will make it some day to some show where that matters, but I'd just like A factory correct radiator for a 442 with AC, which calls for the HD cooling option; the car won't know what tag it has.
