Exclamation Anyone have a PA radiator tank?

Looking for an original 4 core PA tank, with or without tags for a 1969 GTO 4spd car. My GTO had a GM service replacement radiator put into it almost when the car was new. These service replacments were for both man and auto cars so I have the factory plugs in my unit.

Would like an original tank to put on my service replacment core. It should fit fine. Tags would be nice but I can always find them later.

Thanks.

the repopps are a grand..... OPG or parts place not sure how well they look to originals.... I may have one but im waiting on a few responses

Heres a tip ALL 3 core & 4 core use the same filler side in 69 XJ is embossed in the tank
the BO 3 core & PA 4 core share this same tank. its the pass side tank on a BO which makes it a 3 core. SO you can fine a BO & make a 4 core if you find a 4 core pass tank

Yes, I have seen the repops. They look really good in the photos. I wonder who is making them and where? So much of the repop stuff is coming from overseas these days like everything else.

My service replacement is excellent it just has the auto cooler plugs and there is no tag because these replacements were made to fit 2 to 3 different applications. When I bought my car 28 odd years ago, this radiator still had the original RC15 cap and overflow hose.

I happen to see an original 1967 Yenko Camaro 4 spd with this same service radiator. This would make sense because Don Yenko beefed up all these cars including the cooling system for that 427.

It is great to receive so many opinons on this forum. The learning about these great cars never stops.
