1996 woodchuck WC/17 HELP !!!!

[squirrel64]

Hey guys, haven't been here for quite some time. Hope you can help. My boss owns a 1996 woodchuck WC17. Has 4cyl Perkins and the radiator is smashed. He keeps saying he can't find one for less than 1000.00. It is a 4 core radiator and it seems there should be something compatible. But he says there are no numbers on the radiator itself so I'm trying to help him out. But I don't have a clue where to look other than Woodchuck which is where he inquired. The problem is that he's killin us loading all this brush by hand because he refuses to pay that much. And I'm getting tired of climbing 3,4,or five hours and then having to get out of the tree and load brush ! Close to quitting as a matter of fact

Would any of you know where I might be able to find one? We're in Northern Va

Have you checked into having the radiator repaired or rebuilt?

Yeah unfixable ,,,, Chipper got jackknifed a while back and it just crunched the radiator. I'm still looking for him. Not an easy one to find if you don't have any numbers

Get in touch with your local Perkins dealer. They should know better than anybody what radiators will work with that engine. You might have to made some minor modifications to the mounts but it should work just fine.
