Radiator spurting arterial green fluid

OK...my radiator sprung a major leak yesterday. It's junk. Which raditor should I buy and which vendor is the best?

Might as well upgrade to a 2/3 core since it needs to be replaced.

I use this because it's an all copper with aluminum finned radiator. Works really good.

I looked at Oreilly and Advanceauto and they are the same...and the advanceauto site had some comments that the Ready-Rad needed some modification to fit. I'm not wild about that. Are there any out there that fit without adaptation?

Also, any tips on making the job easier?? I don't have a lot of extra time over the next couple weeks and can't afford to get jammed up in my garage with pools of green and red fluid on the floor.
