What to do with 86GN radiator

[PaulRV6]

I had this recored a number of years ago and it never leaked but the solder is coming apart on the top mounting plate and the cooling fins are able to push out. I already installed a Fbody radiator a few yrs back so is it worth selling to someone who can use it or selling for the scrap copper? Thanks

Figure out what brass is going for per pound. weigh the thing, take the result and see of someone will give you 20 bucks more than scrap value--if not, then junk it for beer money...

Keep it for next time you go to the junkyard. Give it to the owner before he gives you a price on your used parts.

It would be a shame to scrap the tank with the coolers as it is unique to only 1986-7 turbo Buicks, no other GM vehicles used that tank

Over the years I have recored hundreds of them, and the stock radiator with a new core more than adequate for cooling most TR's even here in the desert.

I will gladly give you core value for the tank with and pay shipping cost.

Give it to someone that will re-core it.
