I worked in the radiator shop several years ago. had to find a new job due to high lead levels in my blood stream.I still stop in the shop off and on to shoot the bull.usually a recore is cheaper than a new radiator and should carry the same warranty as a new one.if done by a quality shop the recore would probably be better than a brand new one.price wise im guessing the recore job will run 175$- 275$ this is just a guess on the older stuff I will need the core demensions to give you a accurate price.also keep in mind prices vary from shop to shop and some shops think they can stick it to you good luck
