as far as obtaining a new radiator promptly, just go to radiators.com and they will overnight it for 9 bucks. I just went through this whole fiasco about a week ago, but it's all very easy. the only thing I can think of to add to the above post is if your car's an auto, you will have 2 tranny coolant lines to disconnect from the bottom of the radiator. when disconnected, a little bit of motor oil will come out, but that's ok. other than that, it's really easy. Basically, if you can change oil, you chould be able to change out your radiator in about 2 hours max.
