I have heard the rumor often repeated that the Korean War radiators were thinner material compensated for with the larger fan, but I've never seen an example of a Korean War radiator next to one that hadn't been lightened/cheapened. I would figure my 52 would have whatever modifications were being performed during the war (it certainly had that lousy chrome), but my radiator looks just like the ones for the later cars. What are the part numbers or other identifying marks that denote one of these war radiators?
