Thumbs down Radiator replacement part?

I have a 1971 c10 long bed 4.1L L6 three on the tree. Ordered a replacement radiator from OReilly. Twice. Both were too deep. Despite the product page stating they included mounting brackets, neither did, and they were too deep to fit the existing brackets. I ordered this one first: http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/de...keyword=433369

Then the store guy ordered another one for me. Same price. Didn't fit either.

I have the option of buying this one: http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/de...yword=radiator

But it's $400 with shipping and who knows if it fits given the previous two items.

I've still got the old radiator. It's brass. There is a small radiator shop just down the road that comes recommended by the OReilly guy. I plan to ask Monday how much they would charge to repair. In the meantime... has anyone here recently bought an off the shelf radiator for this style of truck successfully? Where did you go and how much did it cost? Just trying to evaluate options.

Thanks!
