My heater core for my '63 Dart is leaking and it's time to replace it.

Does anyone have a good source for an NOS one, or a good quality reproduction?

Things on eBay seem all over the place not sure what's good and what's not.

My heater core gave up the ghost last winter. I took it to a local radiator shop, and the guy there said it was almost the exact size of a Ford heater core that was pretty common still, and he had one in his shop. He swapped it out, two hours later is was back in the car running good as new. Cost me $100.

Unfortunately no, he made it seem like it was common for multiple models for multiple years.

Ordered a new one from RockAuto. 1967 is the same as '63, apparently.
