RE: IML: Recoring an Imperial radiator

["Rob McCall" <Rob_Mopar@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Yes, copper prices are up.  I just bought a bunch of ½” pipe for some house repairs.  I think it was 4 pieces of 5’ long pipe and ran just under $80.

 

I had a radiator recored for my ’68 Barracuda a few years ago and it ran about $350.  That was for a 4-row 26” wide core.  So far the original on in the LeBaron is holding.

I had a radiator that was beyond repair. The radiator shop took the measurements of the core and ordered it. I was charged $400.00 for rebuilding the radiator and core. This included boiling out the gas tank and putting a sealer inside the tank. I just talked to the radiator shop and they said the prices went up on copper.
