starfireelvis Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 My poor old radiator is falling apart. Anybody have a good source for a replacement? 1962 Starfire. 394 automaticThere may be others who have dealt with a specific vendor with good success; here is a listing from USA Parts Supply:S8.854N 59-63 All.......................................................... 199.45Core Deposit................................................... 100.00Also another place I found on-line that specializes is US Radiator; keep in mind that there is a difference regarding whether or not your car has air conditioning or not; I believe you need a four-core radiator for an A/C car...http://www.usradiator.com/radiators/oldsmobile/88.htmlGood luck, keep us posted...

rocketraider Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 If you use USA make sure their current supplier makes it for a big Olds. I had them make one and it came in fully three inches too short top to bottom. Ended up finding an old school radiator guy who recored mine using the original tanks.Didn't help that the radiator company's tech line had no one available who could speak English...
