Cheap Ebay radiators?

Has anyone had good experiences with the cheap +/- $150 aluminum radiators on Ebay?

I have not, but you can get pretty decent Griffin from Summit/Jegs for about $200 or the house brands sometimes even less especially when on sale, coupons etc. Seems like a better bet then ebay for a radiator to me.

Check for the Champion Radiators. They can be had on eBay cheap and are very good radiators. I've had several with zero issues.

Champion radiators have a good rep and I’ve been running one for a while with no issues

Little off subject line but I got a Brice-Thomas for my '39 build. They sent blueprints for a standard '39 radiator, I made changes to the inlet/outlet etc and they built it to my specs. Nice to have a radiator that fits and does the job. Price was not all that bad. With vehicles of the 50s and up there is more room to fit a universal (style) radiator which drives the price down.
