I'm not familiar with the term 'desert cooler'. Is that a Ford piece, or an aftermarket? There are no markings on the top tank that I can see, but the left side strap is stamped C6ZE-E, and there is a brass tag that reads Mc10-G-5. The lower tank is for a manual trans. I was just wondering if this is the correct rad for this car? If I have to replace it what should the correct rad look like?
Desert cooler was basically the extra extra cooling option that few owners choose. Given what you provided it sounds like it could be the original and I would keep it based on what you posted here.
I'm rather surprised more "66 savvy" people have not chimed in yet...it will happen, I think
