Rads are definitely the weak spot in many restorations.....

With the collective knowledge/expertise fo the MLU and assuming that all CMP must have had some commonality in parts...... and that they were built using available civilian design parts at the time ...... is it possible to track the various applicable parts numbers for these rads and see what other truck models Chev and/or Ford rads would have fit in the CMP.....

For example the windshield frame for a Dodge power wagon 47 to 68 are all the same and windshield from earlier Dodge models back to 1940 or so are interchangeable...... so are the doors....sometimes doors ahve to be slightly modified but can be made to fit.....

CMP sheet metal is rather unique but a rad must be interchangeable..... and other USA Chev repro suppliers may have something that fits our little orphans...... it also would make for some interesting junk yard sorties.....
