Some leakage should be repairable by any radiator shop. Some leakage
because its rotted
may not be rapairable. I'd have it pulled and sent the radiator shop for
evaluation. Those guys are good
and generally stand behind their work. If the radiator is not repairable
they will tell you.

It was my understanding that there was some leakage around the lower
driver's side during the pressure test.

Hi Mark
That seems low mileage for replacment. Age and corrosion is a
factor
to be considered. if not rotted
then there is a procedure called rodding out to clean out the
radiator
or recoring if the tanks are OK.
did he say why the radiator needs to be replaced.
hope this helps
