I am in need of a good used, or good repairable radiator for my 1926 Chevy, 4 door touring car, model K.
The core is bad on mine and cannot be repaired.
Thanks Paul

If the radiator tanks are okay, you can find an old school radiator shop and have a new core put onto your old tanks.

I did that with Lurch's radiator last year and the new core keeps him cool(er). The cost was around $750.

Even if an old core has good coolant flow, it might have lousy heat transfer.
