I'm using a 1986 Volkswagen Golf radiator, narrow version that is 24" wide. The AC models have a wider radiator.

Pluses- light weight, high capacity, cheap ($43.00 new from Halsey Automotive in Portland OR).

Minuses- both hose connections are on the right side so you have to make a long lower hose, also needs a purge tank.

I've put some photos in my new personal album showing the install.

Nice photos, thanks Gary.

$43 for a brand new aluminum radiator! Who would've guessed that VW was so price-friendly.
