Oliver 1800 A needs Radiator

[Indy Farmer]

I cannot find anyone that sells a new radiator for this tractor.
A local radiator shop will solder a new core to my top and bottom tanks for $700. A used radiator at the Salvage yard is $500 but will probably fail soon if it is 60 years old. I see new radiators for $360 on the internet that fit the 1600 and 1650 series Olivers. They appear to be about an inch less tall and wide with the same depth and number of tubes. Why the big difference in price?
Does anyone know the part # of an Oliver 1800 radiator? One shop said they may be able to search for a new radiator if they had that number.

You should ask down below on the Oliver, Cletrac, Coop and Cockshutt Forum.

You can likely find a part number using the AGCO on line parts books. It appears you may need you serial number to get the right one. The AGCO site won't allow a direct link to a specific book or page so you will have to go there and do the search to see the book. Here is a link to the site: https://apb.agcocorp.com/

On the search page enter 1800 in the model search box. that should bring up several options. In the manufacturer drop down check the White box and you should have the parts book.

That was a great website with the parts catalog!
I found the radiator part number and will call tomorrow and see what the radiator shop comes up with.
Thanks for your help.
