    Looking for a 1972-1974 3 core stock radiator, auto or manuel doesnt matter. needs to be in good condition mine looks like it got torn up but afan or a previous owner and now leaks bad, havnt looked into recoring it but a used one will be cheaper.

    getting my rad recored was 60 bucks. well worth it. i would check around the local rad shops. They recored it, cleaned out the crap in the tanks, re-sealed it and re-welded the mounts. Its basically a brand newish radiator.

    Ok ive heard more, but 60 is fine. I was going to spend 30-40 bucks in gas to pick up a used 25 dollar one but im not doing that much driving.

    Wow, that's what they charge up here for just pressure testing, rodding it out, patching up minor leaks, steam cleaning, and some paint. $60 for a recore is a helluva deal!

    Either way, I agree, recoring is well worth it.
