Thanks for the help!

I don't think it is a 37 V8 60 truck radiator.
I restored a 37 Ford 85 HP pickup in the early 1960's. I was sold a NOS radiator that had wider side mounting fins and the fill neck was spaced forward on the tank. I was told the radiator was a "desert, high capacity option". I did not note that the upper and lower tubes were smaller than an 85 hp radiator when the I bought the radiator.
The radiator fit the chassis perfectly, however the shell would not fit onto the radiator.
I still have the radiator hanging in my garage. Pix attached.
