I got my radiator "rotted out" and right when the thermostat opened and pressurized it, she started peeing. Brought it back to the radiator shop and fix after fix, she kept popping holes because it is rotted from the inside out. Does anyone have a radiator to sell/where I can get one? I'm not into spending big bucks, and don't care if it is stock/aluminum/aftermarket or anything. I just want to get my car on the road. Any help is always appreciated.
