Original radiator in a 68

How can I tell if the radiator in my 68 is original? It’s a 50k car and still has a lot of original parts. I have already replaced it with a cold case but wonder if it is worth keeping

I joined in 1991 or 1992 (I was 15 or 16), been a member since and have never seen anything other than smoke signals. Do you have to request them? I probably wouldn’t do anything with it though.

Last week I picked up the 58 Bonneville from the paint shop and dropped off my 68 Firebird. He has the windows pulled and has started stripping the car. Hopefully this one will be ready by summer.
