I had gotten various quotes for a new one. Repco $380 i think it was, Auto 1 $260, local radiator store $300.

The one i bought was an Adrad stock replacment.

And you should never go alloy on a old motor, the corrosion will eat that rad away fast. Hence why i wanted a stock one not an alloy.

Alloy is generally more expensive then brass radiators...

$250 is about the going rate for nos rads.

I went a HD NOS one for the 202 and it was $420, which is now useless to me hahaha i just made myself cry a little. Kept the beast as cool as a cucumber on the hot days so i still go my moneys worth, sorta.
Then the V8 HD one i paid $320 for at mates rates, it wasnt a NOS rad though, it was an ADRAD one wherever they source there radiators from.
