That's an interesting point. I have never seen a remanufactured
radiator offered yet from anyone. My local radiator shop said he would
rebuild it with a new core that was still available from Canada, would
take 1-2 days for $200. Maybe the terminology is confusing and
misleading.

Ah, but you see, that would/could be exactly what you get when you buy
'rebuilt.' I have seen companies offer $15 REBUILT STARTERS that they
have pulled from the salvage yard, verify they work, and paint them
black. A radiator that was only flushed, and verified that it doesn't
leak, and painted black would be considered 'rebuilt.' Likewise, a rad
that was recored would fall into the 'remanufactured' catagory.
