I have heard that the radiators are hard to come by. One member had to have his rebuilt by a local shop.

You could try here

http://www.autoradiatorsdirect.com/wizard/default.asp

I ran a search and they say they have it, but I would check for sure.

Here the pricing is 345.95, but I would check the sizes.

Hope this helps

recore

There are reputable radiator shops in most areas that can recore your radiator and warranty it for much less than a new one. Be sure that your tanks on the radiatorcheck out ok, then be sure to get the same capacity core or even step up a little in the replacement....lol jem

i looked for a radiator last month and was refered to the local mugal supplier by napa. was told i have your radiator but i need the filler neck of the old one to make it work. havent removed the old one yet but when i do im going to put them side by side and compare. to insure they are the same. they were going to install the filler neck at no charge. cost for radiator about $350 which is not bad for a big four core radiator. wouldnt mind getting a six core if i could find one.
have you had your radiator checked you might be able to get it rodded out and acid bathed and be ok.
i had mine done last year and the shop short changed me only rodded out and didnt acid bath. i think it is starting to cloog up again. plus i had a fan come lose and did some damage.
it is a bear to remove . lol
