Looks like it's time to replace a leaking heater core in my '64. Does GM still offer one or do I need to go to the aftermarket vendors? If anyone has done this recently please advise as to the best route to take. thanks Blake

Re: Mid Year Heater Core
Blake,
IMO since this item is NOT judged, get a new repop (GM doesn't make one any more). I do not recommend getting the original re-cored. I recommend getting new seals as well.

Re: Mid Year Heater Core
You could buy original cores from an AC Delco dealer as recently as 5 years ago. doubt they're discontinued. I've had NO trouble re-coring the C-1 heater cores as they were discontinued before god made dirt. mike- Top

Re: Mid Year Heater Core
I did this in my 66 and it isn't that difficult. If you have the past issues of The Restorer (last 2-3 years??) there is an excellent article (I think by Gary Beaupre) on doing this in a non-ac midyear. No need to go for a repro when all of the catalog companies sell a suitable core.
