Re: New radiator for '86 Coupe GT

[evangelo@mecf.wustl.edu (Evangelos Tozakoglou)]

I just got a used radiator for my 5000 CS T, 86.
I paid for it 100$, so far (<month) it is doing fine.
The best price I found for a new one was $175.
Being a student (no cash) I went for the used one.
The problem is that these have a life span of about 8 years,
so the chances of getting bad soon are high.
I got mine from glarsh@... (The e-mail address is on the FAQ)
Hope that helps.
