When my big block radiator went out a couple years ago I searched online and got a copper/brass radiator by Ready Rad and it seems to be fine. There are some sites where you can order online and have it delivered to your door, or pick up from a local distributor at a discount. I think I paid about $145 for the radiator, plus I got about $40 for my old radiator at the scrapyard. I would not buy an aluminum/plastic radiator for these old trucks. I had an aluminum radiator in my 63 Vette from the factory, but I think that was better constructed than the cheap aftermarket ones. Of course, for $150 or so I guess you can just replace them when they leak. I also used copper/brass heater core rather than aluminum.
