Check the attached from the Parts manual. I do not see why the radiator guards/shrouds have to be removed. The 3-4 bolts down both sides should do the trick. But you will probably have to remove the fan to be able to slide it back a bit.

If you're having it rebuilt, there are probably still places that have the core material to do so. perhaps just cleaning will work too. However, if you need to replace it, check with Speedway Motors. I got an aluminum "universal" radiator from them for my '40 Pontiac that was almost the exact same size. But I see your filler cap is on the side and the aluminum one was on the top. They were available with different inlet and outlet locations too. Just a thought

Good luck.
