There were 22 and 26 inch radiator shrouds. The radiators did vary some as far as how many cores and such, but that doesn't matter to you. I think you did OK. Heck at that price, you did real well. :thumbs:

I found out through experience that there's a wide varity of  shrouds for 22 and 26 inch radiators, dependant on the year, engine size, air, etc.  Each shroud will have it's own part number that should corrospond to the radiator part number.

At $15 bucks, ur not out much if it doesn't fit...can always relist on Ebay!

I'm sure its the right one...i think...Since its a spare for my 70 barracuda GC 383/no A/C.This came off of a 70 barracuda 318 so chances are its the right one.15 bucks is cheap but the shipping is 25,so it will be 40 bucks.They are HARD to come by and even though i dont need it for that price i may one day.

Hard to tell from the pics but it looks like a newer one than 1970

The correct shroud will have part #2998 328.
Hope this helps. :)
