need a radiator, where? Options

[Terzin1]

My radiator cracked the other day and my engine temp. shot to the ceiling. I parked it immediately and shut the car off and had it towed home. I don't think there is severe engine damage but the radiator damage is catastrophic. What's the best place to buy a new one for a 95 GT convertible? Also, it was the very top part where the hoses connect that broke. is this individually replaceable?

Last one in stock for now, 85 shipped WITH transmission cooler built in since a lot of them aren't going to have it which would mean you'd have to run a separate transmission fluid cooler which is a pain when just trying to replace something.

I bought this same brand from amazon and it is very good quality. Everything is sealed and clean and shipped very well thanks to amazon.

Pick up new hoses too, and order a thermostat while you're at it.

Your hoses are drying out with the old coolant inside of them. Its just nasty and probably need to be replaced
You will need a new thermostat as the old fluid is drying and causing the thermostat to rust now which will get it stuck halfway open and you will have a car that runs until a greater load is put on the engine and you'll start overheating.
Your thermostat gasket is old and ripped apart if its never been replaced

Also i forgot to mention, it will take about 15 minutes to replace, but an hour or so to flush EVERYTHING out properly. Use distilled water, if possible or a hose will be fine
