1962L Aluminum Radiator Correct Reproduction
As a result of different castings, DeWitts created model 944 for the 1962 model Corvettes. This radiator features the flat upper casting and has an expansion joint cut into the top plate. According to several original samples and the GM blueprints, this saw cut was not introduced until 6-25-1961, which means no 1961 should have it.
There was one other major change to the radiator in March of 1962. The part number and date code, previously stamped on a metal tag, were now stamped on the top of the radiator. The aluminum tag was changed to be a stick-on coolant warning and was carried over into the early 1963 model. These date-stamped 1962 radiators were the only coolant system parts that ever used the month/year format instead of the year/month format that was used on all other years, including expansion tanks.
