I just had a bunch of sandblasting done on my '72, so now I need to clean out the heater box, etc. I thought I'd replace the heater core "while I was at it" (althought the heater really cooks in that thing!)--how difficult is this to do oneself?
Well,
They Charged me $37.20 for the Heater core, $2.50 for two hose clamps, and $68.20 to remove and replace the heater core! Oh, Let's not forget the tax $8.22. That's a grand total of $116.12

OUCH! I guess it pays to do things oneself and it sounds like I'm in the wrong business.
LOL! Yep, I better learn to do some of this stuff myself. I'm In Northern Arkansas. I guess there are cheaper places to get your truck fixed but, land is still pretty cheap here!

If any of you are still interested... I recently replaced the heater core on my 1972. It was pretty easy, all except getting the boot from the vent to the heater back on. You unbolt the heater unit from under the hood on the firewall. There are 3 nuts bolted on to studs integral to the housing.
