    Tough call. Too many options. Prices range from $100. to $1,000. Will the truck have A/C? What transmission?

    One that holds coolant probably would be a good start, but.....why a 'belly button on the front when a '39 grille is so sexy with those curves ??? Oh welcome too our family here.
    I maybe a little crazy but it stops me going insane.

    You want to make sure the radiator will be able to cool the motor you decide to use. HP and accessories will directly relate to the size and efficiency of the radiator you pick.

    If it was me, I would use either a PRC or an AFCO aluminum radiator. I have an AFCO in my '32 with a 16 inch electric fan and an A/C condenser. It cools just fine.
