Tom, 

In my urq, I have a Coupe GT radiator on which I had a shop weld the missing
nipples for the auxiliary rad and such. Much cheaper than anything else
since the rad was from a parts car and free...

It is an OEM part (AEG If i remember well). It is exactly the same urQ rad
(size and thickness) but without 2 or 3 nipples. It will look OEM if you
paint it flat black over the shinny gloss black these shop normally use. I
did it with BBQ paint.

Several years ago I bought an OE replacement Nissens - it was pretty cheap
at around $175 IIRC.  I bought it from a local distributor - Performance
Radiator http://www.performanceradiator.com/  That said it started to leak
slowly after about 2 yrs :-(

So I'm thinking they should be available - and not too bad price-wise.  

And all that said - I can't recommend the Ron Davis radiators enough if you
decide to go aftermarket - very nice piece.

Lets try this again. My last note never made it, are wanted posts not
allowed? (at least I never saw it)
 
Looking for a radiator for my 84. picked up a nice aux that was really
needed (thanks Tim) but my main is toast as well... I know there are some
REALLY nice aftermarket pieces but I'm trying to keep it like it left the
factory (for now).
 
cheers,
tom.
