David S Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 Hello, I am currently trying to find a rust free or undamaged radiator core support for my 1955 Buick Roadmaster as well as the passenger side fender as well. I am trying to avoid having to do any welding work on these components so if anyone has one available that is rust free or damage free or only surface rust I would be interested in purchasing. I am located in the Dayton, Ohio area but am okay with shipping depending on cost. Please PM me if you have a rad support or fenders you would be interested in selling. Thanks, David S.

David S Posted November 29, 2019 Author Share Posted November 29, 2019 Bump, I have removed the radiator from the vehicle, when I said rad support earlier I meant the U shaped channel that the radiator bolts to, mine is completely rotted away. After looking at the hood further I believe I am also in need of a new hood at this time. Thanks, David S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Phillips Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 What's your measurement across the top of the radiator's U-shaped channel? I have one from a '55 Special but don't know if they are the same size for a Roadmaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireballV8 Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Hi David Pete is closer to you, so hopefully his is the same size. I have the inner fender and a channel from a 1955 Roadmaster. Thanks Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, David Senter This one is just over 25" from outer channel to outer channel, across the top--probably flexes enough to resolve the difference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
