  Cool.  Is that a Behr?

      So how much do your radiators go for Jeff?   I'm thinking that I
should replace the rad when I put the Subaru motor in there as cheap
insurance.

        Jim,

        You need to find a new importing warehouse...  $149.95 is a decent
price,
        but it is definitely not a few dollars over cost from any of the
large
        warehouses I deal with, and I probably do 1/50th of the volume of
Bus Depot.

        Cheers,

        Jeff

        Right now it's Bus Depot @ $149.95.  Not bad considering that's just
a few
        dollars over my cost from the importing warehouse.  Dealer still
gets around
        $417(!)
