I purchased this for $64.99 at Autozone.
 
Reservoir/Filler Bottle:  The reservoir bottle, hoses, cap and radiator brackets i purchased used from a local yunk yard for like $10-$15.  I believe i got them from a 740 series Volvo(with a round reservoir, the others had a more square reservoir).

I like this radiator a lot more than the original Fiat radiator because it is a more slim design.  The same goes for the fan assembly.  With little adaptation to the connector, the fan works just as the stock one did.
 
The only two minor things that need to be addressed are that the brackets that hold the radiator down don't work as they are and need a 1" spacer in between(i'll post a picture and explain more later).  And the other thing that i should mention is that the lower radiator hose rests(barely touches) on the sway bar, but the radiator is fully suported by the stock bracket(again, i will post pictures and try to better explain myself later).
