Have you checked Rock Auto? They sometimes carry hard to find parts. Since you are in Europe it might be easier to remove the heater core and have it repaired.

Rock Auto doesn't carry this. The '61-'63 Cutlass/F-85s are a whole different breed from the '64s and later in terms of collectibility and availability of parts, new or used. If the one you have can't be repaired, your only hope is likely to be to find a good used one from another car or an NOS piece that might pop up on ebay at some random time.

Slightly off topic... but I'd love to see some pictures of your car! I love the look of the pre-64 f-85's... if I didn't have $17 billion tied up in my '65... I might have to keep my eye out for one of those.

Try these guys:

http://classicfordradiator.com/

Yeah, I know what the URL says, but they do custom radiators and heater cores for all cars. They also have some rare stuff in stock.
