Heater Core

Does anyone know of a source for a 1965 / 66 Heater core that is reasonably priced. I found one company that wants over $50 (US) for a new one which seemed kind of high, but then again is that the going rate?
Some local radiator shops have quoted me $90 (Canadian) to recore mine.

What is your truck? it makes a difference, as heater cores are not the same.

My truck didn't originally come with a heater, so I picked up a "deluxe" heater assembly.

K thats an easy one. a core from a 65 to 72 F100 F250 is the same and will work. Broadens the range some.

With the delux heater box did you obtaint he additional cables and ***** that mount under the dash?

Barry can you post a part number for the core and see who has a few hanging out in NOS?. a replacment should be avalible from NAPA and such places. for not too expensive.
