just go to autozone or pepboys and tell them what car you have and buy all new hoses so you don't runn into this prob again for awhile. while you are at it replace the thermostat too it is cheap and easy and real good insurance.
total for all water hoses and theremo = $30-40 give or take.
If I were you I would go ahead and take your radiator out and have it ultrasonicly cleaned by a radiator shop. it will cost about $20-30 and will really help improve colling in that old rad you have.

I'm guessing that I'll be paying a BIT more than at a local store, then? What price am I looking at here?
