Heater core question
I have a 65 250 that needs a heater core.The local parts store does not have any listings for 1965.I know they were interchangable with later years of Fords.Any idea what year core will fit my truck?Thanx,

Go and pick one up with a Lifetime Warranty at your local AutoZone, Advance Auto, or whatever poorly managed (corporate level), out of the box, three ring circus excuse for an auto parts store that has cornered your local market and shut down the private owned parts stores.
Sorry for the rant but sometimes I get sick of these modern parts stores. The ever fewer people they have on staff are more and more becoming all too typical "bodies" instead of brains. They are so tied up catoring to the "do it for me" crowd, or running between a constantly ringing phone and a cash register that they wouldnt have time to get into a catalog (whats that?) or technical manual (forget that!) if they knew how. I feel sorry for these folks sometimes, you can see that they are doing the best they can with the tools and training(?) they are given so I hate it when some idiot starts cussing or complaining while waiting in line. Maybe thats why they have started hiring 19 year old hotties to stand behind the counter, or better yet change YOUR battery.
