I used a replacement 1958 Impala air conditioning radiator and it fit fine in my 1960 by drilling a couple of holes. Of course if you're looking for something used this isn't going to be any easier than finding a good original truck radiator.

I've read that Nova radiators will work. Not sure the year but I'm guessing 62-67 era.

A 2010 universal aluminum from Summit will fit.

There was another thread about this not long ago. There are several passenger car applications that will work. Mainly mid to late 60's Impala's, Chevelle's, Camaro's, Nova's, etc. These aren't going to be any easier to find used than the specific radiator for these trucks. I would suggest either a new replacement radiator or the universal aluminum radiators from Summit or Jegs.
