I bought a project truck with no radiator. 1966 f100, manual, no ac, 240, 6 cyl, 2 wd. Before i go crazy looking, i need to know what i am looking for. I am not wed to a period correct radiator, but if i find it i may buy it. My radiator support has this block out plate. I get what its for, but not sure if it belongs on this truck or not. I have two sets of width holes i can go by. I also think the radiator needs to have the outlets on the pass side based upon the hoses on the engine.
Read through this thread and I list what might be the same number as the radiator your truck would use. Check it out - I gotta admit I've never seen a block off or filler plate like that used on one of these trucks, but it does look like it fits good.

Any 1966/79 F100/250 2WD 240/300 I-6 radiator will fit as long as the measurements are similar.
1965 is different.
1966 F100/250 2WD uses a unique radiator support, but that doesn't mean that no other radiator will fit it.
Might be - it looks like its made to fit. I can say my 300 powered 4x4 doesn't have any extra filler plate, but certainly might be something they used on 2WD or ?? I don't have a lot of time to look in the MPC now.
Thanks for the pictures. Thanks for taking the time. Very cool how you can put the picture up from the cd. I have the cd for my 77 project and find it very useful.
I have ordered my cd. I was waiting for the title issue to be resolved before I spent too much money on this truck. Title is in the mail. Now i am waiting on my cd and shop manual.
