Help! Broken Down on I25 Outside Denver

Help! Just bought a 1973 D20 Winnebago. Radiator Blew. Need recommendation for a repair shop in the Denver area. Also is there a modern radiator that can replace the old one? Please advise! We would like to do an electric fan.

This may be a case where we need to know more aboutthe report. When you say the radiator blew, do you mean the actual coil section of the radiator itself is leaking, the hoses, etc. are leaking or what exactly happened.

My thoughts run along the line that if the actual radiator blew, a radiator repair shop may be the best place, rather than a car/truck repair shop. A normal auto repair shop may just take the thing out and send it to radiator repair shop , so that you get double charged. I tend to like to go to the guy who actually does that specific work as they also have a better handle on any changes you might want.
Depending on what is going on, a radiator shop may actually fix itwithout the trauma of removing the whole thing! Rare luck but it can happen.
