Hey Thomas,
I think that there are several other vendors who rebuild these for around
$65.00 to $70.00. One is Old Air Products in Fort Worth, TX, and the other
has a website at www.heatercontrolvalve.com . Mine is leaking on my 59, so
as a temporary fix, I ran my heater hoses directly into the core, bypassing
the old valve, and adding a universal valve under the hood. I can now turn
the water flow on and off from under the hood. That valve cost me about
$8.00 at my local parts store.
Good Luck,
Jeff Carrothers

Hello everyone!
The heater control valve is leaking on my 1961 Imperial LeBaron. Does anyone
know an interchangeable part? I have contacted J.C. Auto and they have not
gotten back to me....I need some heat on these chilly morning!
Thanks,
Thomas
