The radiator is out and with a buddy of mine who knows a guy that owns a radiator shop who will put new tanks on the radiator. I think my buddy said it could be done for $40 using Behr tanks. Can't beat that with a stick!

In case I didn't mention it, the upper radiator neck had broken in the past and someone use PVC pipe and glue to jerry-rig it. The pipe is actually glued into the hose...

I have new hoses and Zerex G05 waiting for the radiator to be reinstalled.
