Well I should rephrase that question. I have found John's Mustang sells one as does RestoreMustangs.com but I'd like to do a little more price shopping.

No special 302 radiator needed. You should be able to get a 3 core stock replacement for ~$135. If you need a opposite in/out radiator, a universal Summit aluminum will do the trick for $165

I'd use a 4 row copper or a 2 row aluminum.

Didn't mean to imply I needed a 302 radiator...just that I needed the lower hose on the driver's side. The cheapest I have found now is Mustangs Plus at $155.00

While I was tugging on a hose I think I cracked something because I heard a pop. It didn't leak until I drove it and now all the coolant has leaked out. I might check to see how much it is to repair it.

Ah...sounds like you cracked the solder joint around the lower connection. Any radiator shop ought to braze it up for under $50

That's what I will probably end up doing. Plus I don't have to wait or deal with shipping.
Beats buying a new one and this one is only 2 years old. I just should have been more careful taking that hose off.
