Could you go to a local radiator shop to get it fixed? Doesn’t sound too bad, based on your description. They could even re core it if it’s in need.

He's talking about the plastic over flow not the rad itself

Try checking your local salvage yards, craigslist or ebay. Search CL for dodge van parts or dodge van parting out, many times I have seen folks who had a bunch of misc parts of stuff left over from a van they scrapped.

You could also look for parted out camper van/motor homes with just the van cab.

Chevyvan93, I believe that they would swap out. Was it from a V-8 engine? Let me know condition & price. I am in New Buffalo and I like your photobucket content. Regards, ccccccc in SW Michigan.
