Re: Remove and Re-core 1934 Radiator

Materials and labor go up, not down. That price doesn't seem out of line with what I paid about 6 years ago for an authentic recore of my 34 Eight radiator, I believe that was about $800 as I recall. The original radiator seemed fine, no leaks, car ran cool regardless of conditions; I did it out of an abundance of caution in conjunction with an engine rebuild which always puts new stress on a cooling system. Plus the radiator and shell were already removed and I wanted to also rechrome the shell and repaint the shutters.
