the radiator shop says mine is shot--1500 for a recore which seems excessive

$1,500 seems excessive.  I have not used these guys but they quoted $400 to recore my Jeep radiator plus some labor.

I ended up buying a new Aluminum radiator.  If it was for my Cadillac I would have had it rebuilt.

Good luck,
