Can anyone ID this radiator? It came with my 1968 charger. It is a 26 inch radiator and does fit in the car. However the fan shrould does not fit. I think its a C body? I could not find and part numbers on it. If is is a C body where would I get a fan shroud to fit. thanks In advance.

Otherwise you can try Bob and GlenRay radiator.  They would also have shrouds.

Just out of curiosity, is the fan shroud metal or plastic?

68 rads take a two piece metal shroud.  My guess is you have the right rad and the wrong shroud.

Anybody have a pic of the correct shroud for a 68 charger or know where one could be found?

ODZKing

Hmmm, don't think so Sean.  2 piece is only 22inch, this is 26.

Should look something like this. But this link is not 68.

If there are no numbers on it, it might be an older aftermarket Modine unit or similar.
I have a one-piece plastic '69-style shroud on my '68 with a 26" rad, fits fine just doesn't look "factory correct". Rad is a re-cored 26" C-body unit.
There should be 3 mounting holes on one side, and two on the other.
Do you have a pic of your shroud?

Oh, my bad.  I had always thought the two piece applied to both.  Sorry about that.

I will get a picture of the shroud when I get home thanks everyone

Here are some pictures of the fan shroud I have, I also rechecked the radiator and did not find any number. the bolt hole on the radiator for the fan shroud are about 7 inches vertically apart and 28 inches horizantally apart. any ideas to what shroud might fit?

ODZKing

That would be a shroud for a 67 "C" body with 26 inch rad.
