Radiator leaks.....bad
"bubble rust" some "expert" said it was not worth tryin to fix, what do you guys think?

If the radiator leaks that bad, just replace it. I paid $15 for a used one for my DD from a local junkyard, and it had a 30 day warranty. Get new upper and lower hoses while you are at it.
Rust is hard to decide what to do with without seeing lots of pictures. A quick description would help us out.

Re: Need ALOT of help!
radiator is one of those things you don't want to half-***
either find a good used one...or just pony up for a new one.
seems like i got one for $150 or less when i replaced mine. and that one had a oil cooler in it. not sure if yours does.
