Is there a good place in town to take my radiator to be cleaned/rodded?

Performance Radiator is the one I used.

Just called them. They only sell radiators now.
The radiator in my 60 came from there. I don't recall it costing too much. I'm sure the labor to clean/rod out a radiator would be pretty close to the cost of a new aftermarket. they may be able to remove the top and bottom of your radiator and solder/braze/weld them onto a new core.

They wanted $230 something for a new radiator.
I went with Walker Radiator for $78.

Well that's definetly less. My choices for radiators were either attempting to clean the one in my parts truck that had over 330,000 miles on it or buy a new one because the one that came in my truck was destroyed in the accident that sent my truck to the salvage yard. I'll try to remember to look up what mine cost to compare to your quote.

Good job Rory. Sorry, I didn't know that they changed their selling model! Cleaning the radiator makes more fiscal sense. I paid around $70 to have mine cleaned/rodded at Performance.
When's the radiator going to be done?
It's not like we need to put it back in the truck for awhile....
Happy Birthday Rory.
