I appreciate that Frank and am learning all the time in this hobby. I need a radiator shell for the first radiator shown above.

There are several lookalikes. But there are maybe subtle differences. Th shell of the Quick-Cool has a dip, V in the center, on the face of the core.
The type cooling tubes also an indicator, honeycomb, round tube etc. BUT I am only intending to point out that other radiator shells may look like they may fit or actually fit.

All good reads; thank you! Based on the articles above, I’m looking for the Quick-Cool or Livingston style radiator shell. If someone has one for sale, I’m still interested in buying one, preferably in used condition. ~Bryan

I have a brass "Livingston" Vee type radiator for sale. It worked well on my '14 roadster. It has not been on my car for several years now just sitting around. I replaced it when I restored the '14 and went back to original.
