Mike, don’t know where you live but call Mark at ABC Radiator in Baltimore, contact info on website. Well established shop that recored my radiator although I have a 52. Price was reasonable and below some of the competition. When I first visited his shop he had a bobtail Kenworth in the shop just to give you the range of work done. As far as your own special requirements I can’t answer but you have nothing to lose with a phone call.

Maine radiator mfg in Lewiston ME makes the honeycomb cores. They are expensive, like three grand. They have other styles that are cheaper that could work. A good radiator shop will get what you want from them, remove the top and bottom tank from yours and mount it on the new core.

A few additional sources for vintage cores.
The cores type is know as a film, or ribbon cellular. Auburn, Diamond, McCord type. Great series of videos from Vintage Honeycomb Radiator Company showing the work and craftsmanship required to build a core and restore a radiator. thebrassworks.net/collections/cores/film maineradiator.com/vintage-cores-catalog/ ftrs.com.au/vhrc/ Vintage Honeycomb Radiator Company - Building a core - Part 1 youtube.com/watch?v=Cxt6EN-39Ck Attach file:  Auburn_Diamond_McCord Film Core.jpg (44.46 KB)
