Thank you for the reply. Yes I did go to Hershey, and spoke to a few vendors there.

One vendor told me he doesn't do Packard and to try Universal.

The fellow at Universal told me it would be $1.26 SQ. Inch. for the core that comes to about $500.00. Plus fabrication and installation.

I spoke to three semi local radiator shops this morning, #1 only buys replacement new fab radiators, #2, the fellow was 90? yrs old and he said that the type of work I discusses would cost thousands. # 3 said sure bring it down and I will look at it.

So that is the latest and greatest with local sources.

Thanks again for the response. In your opinion is $800 even in the ball park??

Thanks again
