Griffin can make you an aluminum one if you have a pattern. They made a 
wonderful one for our F?J. Great folks to work with.

I always ask for "Dallas".  (864) 845-5000 or (800) 722-3723

I have had them make a number of rads over the years. They have grown 
tremendously. I guess they are losing the personal touch. I hope not.  I 
first found them in 1986 when Buddy Griffin was walking around the Road 
Atlanta paddock at the Walter Mitty telling people he could make better 
radiators for any car. They were brass/copper then, but works of art. Now I 
don't think they make any but aluminum.
