I went to a not so local dealer and picked up a new one. Then I spent some time visiting with the Wash DC Volvo Club during a DIY session. I saw some very nice cars and talked to some nice guys as well. Then it was off to see my Mon and get some eats. Finally I went home, watched a movie and only then did I replace the radiator. Pretty easy, various bits are kinda tight and the old one looked OK, complete with reinforcing sleves in the hose necks. I also changed the oil, Mobil-1.
I'm keeping it as a spare.
I'm not sure the old one was bad but I'm not taking any chances with the car or the possibility of my wife and kids getting stranded.
