I have one that leaks out of my 74 Ramcharger (440 A/C truck)
the 72-80 truck heater core's for factory A/C trucks have been out of production for 6 or 7 years best I can tell. I had to buy a used one and have a local radiator shop soldier up some cracks. The one that came out of my truck appears to have had water in it and froze. It looked like an aquarium aerator when submerged and filled with air.

A competent radiator shop should be able to re-core it and repair the tanks if needed. or possibly look for a similar heater core that can be modified to fit Problem is most people do not want to pay the price for a quality re-core or repair. They keep looking for the 29.99 Chinese junk cores. The local radiator shop won't touch heater cores because they are tedious and time consuming. He pressure tests his work and they often spring new leaks and become a money pit. Find a new shop, If the cores are leaking, replace them. No reason for them to leak after that. We have ONE locally that really is a craftsman and his finished product shows it. Glen Ray may also be an option And yes the 29.99 junk is just that.
