Heater motor
Gentlemen and some ladies,
Is there another 12v heater motor that fits the original case without buying the expensive one from Midfifty or Bob's F100?
1954 Ford F100 302/AOD
2006 Ford F150 SC 4.6/AOD
2003 Mazda Tribute 4cyl/5spd (who cares) :-)

Hope it's not too late, I went to the local parts house and they looked it up in an old book. Had both 6 and 12 volt in stock. I believe I paid $42 for the 12 volt. I'll see if I can find the part number, if you still need it.

Also, for what it's worth, I installed the motor from a '79 Econoline in a 53-55 heater box once; had to enlarge the hole an inch or so, but that was easy enough.

I bought it in Gainsville, GA at a local parts house called "Slack Auto Parts" (no pun intended, because they certainly aren't) The part number is C/T35576 and it was actually 39.99 for the 12 volt. The phone number is 770-535-6000.
Good Luck!

The one that I bought fit right into the housing on the existing heater and has been warming my cab for a few weeks now.
