How much money should it cost to replace and repair a radiator for a '92 Honda Civic?

Question:
I guess that I need to have the radiator replaced on my '92 Honda Civic, which otherwise works just fine. I'm not sure, though, that I trust the mechanic that I've recently worked with (I somehow get the feeling that he may be taking me to the cleaners). I know NOTHING about cars or auto repair, so any info/tips on how to save money (or how to find a trustworthy mechanic) would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks!

Answers:

How many miles can you get on 5 quarts of oil last in a car?

About $100 for the radiator and $200 for the labor.
14 years is pretty old for a radiator, so it's a good bet it needs replacing.

Any advice on fixing my boyfriend's vehicle?

Probably around$350.00

How can I tell if my car needs a new shock or if the shock tower needs to be rebuilt?

Take it to another mechanic. Listen to your intuition. Have your dad or boyfriend or someone check your radiator fluid and take a look at the radiator.
