I guy I went to here in town and he said 475 dollars. I can't beleive that price. Is there any other radiators that will work in my truck?

The original, if in good shape, is more than adequate.

Or just have it cleaned and sealed if it's still workable. Makes big difference when they can get all the deposits out of an old core.
1956 GMC 370 dump " 'Tater "1970 VW Volksrod "the Black Bomber" 2007 Chevy Avalanche 2020 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk, 2005 Harley Davidson FLHTCUI I dig all cars, old and new, whether they were hammered out of American iron, German steel, or Japanese tin cans. Being unable to appreciate them all is missing out on a world of great things.
But thats just MY opinion! :P
