----With an AC condenser on the front? I don't think so, but may be for some sort of big commercial vehicle.....Bill S
Looks like something from the late 50s early 60s with factory air.
With all the little key holes punched in it, you have to wonder if it was an aftermarket unit?
That giant oversize tank on the top reminds me of the radiator on my Vandan Plas Princess limo. My radiator interchanges with RR and Bentley model limos from the day, as they were all built by the same coach builder.
But on the british limos the upper tank is a much different shape.

Looks like a 32 Ford, or early 30's ford hot rod radiator

That's for a '33 - '34 ford, you can tell by the radiator grill shell mounting tabs on the top in front of the filler neck. Add on A/C condenser.
'32's had mounting holes in the lower side tabs and a offset filler neck.

For use with a some later engine than a flathead V8 though, as the flatty had separate water pumps for each bank and the rad had two upper and two lower outlets/inlets.
