Default Radiator Search?

I have a 1985 Glaspac with a 302 and in need of a Radiator. Does anybody know of a place that I can order one by measurements or specifications?

These guys have done a nice job at a fair price for me Aluminum Custom Built Radiators | Street Rods, Classic Cars, Muscle Cars, Trucks
Speedway has some smokin deals and their sizes are all listed Radiator - Speedway Motors, America's Oldest Speed Shop
Summit lists them all by size which is very helpful to you
Universal - Radiators - SummitRacing.com

Any reputable radiator shop can fix your old one (re-core), then you won’t have to search gods creation for one that will work.

What you have is an older Ford radiator. Current technology uses cross flow core for more efficient cooling. Your application and sizing can be converted to that type or you can duplicate what you have. Keep in mind you can use a aluminum radiator of a smaller size and still have the same cooling capacity. Some of the cross flow radiators do not have provisions for radiator caps. Usually a surge tank has to be incorporated or a cap & neck in the top hose. Pick up a current copy of Circle Track Magazine. There are many inexpensive radiators advertised in it.
