'62 88 Heater core?

Well, I know it runs, the trans works fine despite being a Slim Jim, the fuel now moves without clogging everything, the radiator has been re cored, brakes done with everything new....Now the drips on the passenger feet.
Stands to reason that the heater core isn't better than the radiator.
Are they available anywhere? I looked through the Fusick offerings and saw no sign, nor has Kanter... Any help here?

Thanks

Matt

You can find NOS heater cores on ebay once in a while. You might also try USA Parts Supply, or even a NAPA might be able to find you one in a deep dark warehouse somewhere.

OE part # : grp 8.854, p/n 3144755 heater core 1959-63 except F85.

You might compare a Chevy or Pontiac repro piece. Any new production will be made of Chinesium though.

Well NAPA is a winner at 58.00 + tx, I also picked up front brake shoes for 24.00. Quite pleased, they are the only place that didn't just say 'no'.
Thank you for the tip, I had quite forgotten about them.
