    No one make them any more. Here is a link to one on E-bay. Its pricey but they dont show up often
    I have been watching for one not knowing if mine was good but after I found the control valve I put it together and it doesnt show any leaks when I hose tested it.

    I guess it all comes down to demand. Here, we see a lot of requests but overall its a small percentage
    I could use a gas tank as well. May go with the modified Mustang set up

    What are the dimensions of the heater core,,,,,,we sometimes just buy another type and solder your old tank ends on it,,,,,,,or just throw something that is close in that fits the hoses,,,,,I got a picture and size book of heater cores,,,,,this is a Chevy,,,,,,,

    Use a similar size Granada heater core and use the 65-67 style under floor valve and cable. It will appear as stock still.

    Im in the process of replacing my heater core and from the research i did what i could come up with was that the heater core is obsolete. After research replaced it with a heater core from a late 80s early 90s bronco ( almost exact fit, had to make some small brackets to screw it down with. Im going to install a 12 volt solenoid valve i bought from ebay for about $50, drilled out the temp bezel and tapped it out and am doing to install a cheap pull switch to activate inline solenoid valve.
