	American Parts Depot has a 'correct appearing' radiator that doesn't have the proper numbers or date codes on it. But it has the blackstone type tanks and is painted brass (like the factory). A friend just put one in his 68 AMX and it looks great. Unless you are truly doing a concours restoration, this may be an option for you. They are around $600. As a comparison, I just paid $850 to have a radiator built with the proper top tank (date code and numbers). Its not cheap going back 50 years..... Mike

	I is my understanding that basic 6 cylinder cars had single row radiators and AC equipped cars (and HD or fleet cars possibly) had 2 row radiators with a shroud. Kennedy American had a new replacement 3 row Javelin radiator that was slightly shorter (an inch) but bolted in and looked stock. That is what I used in my 67 Rogue convertible.
