Point No.1 how old is the radiator?

Is time to replace it,

$190, see pic.attached,
It is $200, for a total of $400, to get the radiator on Wednesday and I just don't have that kind of money.

The plan that I have come up with is convert the current lines to barb fittings and use a transmission cooler. This was a suggestion by a friend. It is then $35, $100 total, to have it here.

As for the radiator, use 1/2" or 5/8" hose connecting the two ends, or a bolt in the end of each hose.

All I got to do is make it the five miles to the station! Disparate times, desperate measures!
