I have a 1955 Pontiac (Chieftain) and I just had my radiator start leaking. I too have been looking for one and can't find anything besides Brassworks for $775.. I noticed the 57 Chevy radiator looks very similar but would like the original. Any ideas?

Champion radiator had a direct replacement for my 61-Tempest.
Maybe they have one for the 57. Go to Classic Radiators and
see if they have what you need. Classic sells Champion radiators.
Hope this helps ya out.

Thanks but I checked many places called Classic Radiator and Champion Radiator and none of them had anything.. The only place I have seen so far for the 55-57 Pontiac radiator is brassworks for $775.. and they want 6 weeks to build it.

The radiator that U.S.Radiator built for my '59 GMC was only a little over $300.
