Who are most people using for this type of work?
What's the average cost?
This is for my 70 GTX No A/C
Thanks Ron

Hello Ron,
if you can wait 3-4 months , I can do it for you for $750 plus shipping.

Hey Jules, I'm looking right now for a better shell than mine and probably redo it here at home or send it to a guy in PA. that isn't to your level but nice.
Even though winter is coming I'd like to have the car together for those nice days.
Thanks Ron

How about these guys Ron?

WOW got a bunch of good information from a few of you fellows in PM's.
Have a line on a possible good core will know better soon.
Jules and Bill Alphin are as always top notch!!
My budget will slow me down some, may have to just wear "LONG JOHNS"!!!!

Do it yourself!!

Week #136

Friend of mine and local guy does quite a nice job. Takes everything apart, new heater core, they come out pretty amazing.

He specializes in 66-70 B bodies. One pictured is a 68-69, 70's have a different hose inlet size and different part number. His prices are $575 without core and $500 with a nice buildable core. I have never seen Jules heater boxes, I am sure they are amazing, but these are far better than the other guys who do them at Carlisle for a couple hundred more.

I can forward you his info if you are ever interested.

My 2 cents, they are not 'hard ' to do, but more time consuming than most people think.

'Very' dependent on how far down you take it, figure somewhere in the 9-12 hour range.

Also, another small detail to consider is most of the re-builders out there seem to be using standard blind rivets, originals were a tube stye rivet that attached all the exterior components. They require a tad more effort to re-install.
Again it all depends on what the customer requires in a finished product

One I just finished for a customer Superbird.

Nice work guys! Those look fantastic!

I did mine last year for my 69 r/t. It can be time consuming, but what isnt when you are restoring a car? I didnt use tube rivets because I guess Im anal, but not that anal about fasteners for something under the dash.

Another vote for DIY. There are good resto kits available, got mine from Restorick.com. Heater core replacements are still available through Autozone or Oreillys.

All very nice work guys. Congrats but no one mentions taking the motor apart for full resto.
My price includes that.

Jules did mine and its a work of art. Smart money and time sometimes point to having some items professionally done.

Another vote for DIY. I stripped mine down and took a bunch a pictures so I would know how it all went back together. Taking your time is about the best advice. Jules is right about the motor. We tried to order one 3 times at the local auto parts store and every time it came in with the hole in the wrong place. I took the one I had apart and gave it a good cleaning - been working great.

Even went and had a part # stamp made and got some yellow printers ink. It wasn't hard to duplicate the crooked/sloppy stamping...

The AC box is a bit more complicated.
