I don't know about the cost, but the job should be pretty easy. Remove the two hoses (might as well replace them), unplug the wiring harness to the fans, and remove the two nuts holding the brackets on the top of the radiator. Takes longer to write about it than to do it.
What caused your engine to overheat? Has that been fixed yet?

cast iron engines. Even one episode of overheating may lead to a head gasket problem. After you install that new radiator watch your temperature gauge and engine coolant level carefully.
