1960 Valiant Heater Core: what would fit?

[Gadabout]

I can live without a heater core, but I have no idea what might fit. Any suggestions? There don't seem to be any NOS 1960 heater cores turning up on a Web search.

You are going to have to find a Murray or Four Seasons catalog with dimensions and pick a part number that is close to your dimensions. Or a knowledgeable counter person at Napa or OReilys. Most ask for an engine size when you want a wiper blade. Perhaps you can have yours repaired.

Take the old one to your local radiator shop- they can usually repair it, modify another one to fit or build a new one.

I have a couple of used ones.

Not sure it will fit but might be a good place to start.

Says it will fit 59 to 60 dart?

Make sure to check your coolant system for voltage. I think anything over .05volts calls for a flush. Something about the cast iron/coolant flowing/ dissimilar metals/ poor gounds, all can lead to the coolant becoming electrically charged and becomes an electrolyte which can burn soft metals such as aluminum radiators and heater cores. I have seen this many times at the dealership. Heater cores! fun.
