Thanks I will call them In the morning. I also through many phone calls found a guy on the East coast by the last name Tebo, don't know if I spelled that right. He has radiators to fit the 1800ES. He did say that if I was using the shroud I would have to do some fitting. Sounds like the same radiator you purchased. He gave me a price of $340.00.VP auto parts in N Carolina

MAKE SURE that they have the correct part for the ES. I bought one this spring and it was close.....

If you can see, there is no mounting lip on the top for the fan shroud. I had to glue the tab with automotive adhesive. You may also notice the screws with shims holding the side of the shroud in place. The side panels were NOT drilled for mounting the shroud. This had to be done CAREFULLY and then spacers added to complete the job.
I was not completely happy with these issues and they assured me they would ensure subsequent versions would not have this problem.
Volvo rads from those days were universal, which is good, but make sure you get one that's 100% correct.
As of yesterday this is the route we are going. Our local rad shop said they could fit it with a better core than the OEM used, and it would cost about $250.00You could check if there's a local rad repair shop that can re-core yours. If the top and bottom tanks are fine, you wouldn't have any worries about rebuilding it and fitting the original shroud. Make sure they use a core that has the same or greater cooling capacity. There are two side bolts with rubber rings and a rubber ring at the centre of the bottom tank that forms a rad support - don't loose them.
Could be the best choice in the long run.
