Looking for.....

[HzEmall Regal]

Does anyone make a replacement rad support? Like a round bar light weight one?

Got some serious work done to my GN and want to do something like that.

Do you mean the entire core support that holds the front of the fenders and header panel? If so, yes. There is a factory aluminum one that you can find if you look.

Aluminum Core Support
1978-80 Regal-Century
1978-80 Cutlass
1978-80 Grand Prix-Lemans
Chevrolet did not install on any of their models.
Note: As far as 1971-79 VINS go the 6th character is the year (i.e. 8=1978) on 1980 and newer federal law mandated all manufacturers use a 17 digit format with the 10th character being the year. For example the letter A is used to designate 1980 and B=81 etc. There is no letter O or Q so the year is bumped to the next letter i.e. N=92 P=93 etc with it ending with Y=2000 and again starting with numbers 1=2001 etc.

Not sure. I just came across it and thought that was what you were looking for.
