Source for Gasket set? Heater core?

1964 olds F85 cutlass holiday coupe

All original, 36k miles.

the car is a driver, not a racer. I want to re-do some of the gaskets this winter, who is a good source for a gasket set? I am not looking for "summit racing" type parts.

Also need to replace the heater core.

thanks for any advice.

Almost any auto parts store should have or be able to get what's needed.

Rockauto.com has pretty much all you will need!

NAPA was a great source for parts for my 65, they scrounged up almost every part I went in for.

+4 — go down to your corner auto parts store, or order through the mail from one of the chains or RockAuto.

I like the corner store better, because I can see and touch the stuff right there, and if something doesn't work right, I can take it back, and they know me and will take care of it right away.

Stay far, far away from Cap-a-Radiator in New York.

Corteco, period. The only Felpro Olds gaskets that are anything special, is the Permadry valve cover gaskets. ROL owns them now but they can be hard to find. Thinner head gaskets, almost all gaskets coated, fiber pan gaskets etc.
