I have an OEM radiator for my 1969 383 GTS Dart that needs work. Has anyone had Glen-Ray do a restoration on their original radiator and how much did it cost? Not looking for exact figures as every radiator would be different but trying to at least get a reasonable idea of the cost.

Depending on the work required, and the condition of your radiator, expect between $500-$1000 to recore/restore your original, IMHO your better off buying one of their repros if it's available for your application

My original A12 Radiator was about $700 out the door a few years ago. Pretty pricey, the work was outstanding to say the least.

Not looking for exact figures as every radiator would be different but trying to at least get a reasonable idea of the cost. About $700 shipped. That is for a new core with your tanks straightened. Local shop's here charge $500 For the same work but they are always lighter cores, and sometimes have radiator cap clocking issues, fan shroud fit issues, tank strap issues, they never want to fix. Glen-ray is worth the money.

With a company that heavily supports the Mopar resto crowd, Glen-Ray is a no-brainer.
China is the enemy.

I'm late to the thread but I agree TOP NOTCH! I paid $750 for the one on my '79 Power Wagon "Max Cooling". I had bought a rockauto plastic tank junker just to get truck back on road and it would start to heat up bad in traffic on hot Florida days. Now it barely budges no matter what I put it through and looks great too. My turnaround time was a couple of months but IIRC it was Christmas time too.
Facts are stubborn things.

I'll plan on a 2 month turn-around time then. If I get it back quicker then great.
