I doubt the AC condenser or the transmission cooler is actually attached to the radiator. For most cars you can remove the radiator bolts and pull the radiator straight up after disconnecting the hoses and the transmission cooler hoses on the bottom tank.

Do you undo the fan bolts first? (Upper and lower). You should still be able to to the rad forward and get the fan out. Pt cruisers are very difficult to work on even when non- turbo, wait until it time to change the alternator.....
