My personal feeling is that you will not find one much cheaper than that.
If you buy a non-specific one, it may be less expensive, but could cost you extra by way of having to fabricate mounts, different hoses, etc.
As far as finding a used one, I would want to have any used one I purchased gone through, so add that to the price of the cheaper used part.
Four hundred bucks is really not muh money to spend for a part that, once finished, you can forget about for the next ten years or so, assuming you regularly service your cooling system.

I used a radiator from champion radiator. It's made for a 1956 f 100 truck. only difference a little bit narrower. Easy fix with minor brackets. truck never runs above thermostat opening of 180 degrees. 2 row aluminum radiator with choice of right or left lower outlet. I paid 175.00 I see they have them on sale now for $159.00!!! Google champion radiator
