Subject: [alfa] Heater core fitment - Spider vs. GTV
Hi all. I'm currently rebuilding the heater box in my '72 GTV & I've got
a question about heater core fitment. My core was leaking a bit & in
looking on IAP & Centerlines site, neither carry replacement cores.
I took my core to the local radiator shop to have them price rebuilding
it. The owner just called & was ashamed to say the core itself was $250!!!!
It would be over $300 said & done.
That being said I'm looking into finding a useable core somewhere else (IE
find one on a car someone is parting).
I've found one that looks right based on pictures, but I'm not sure. I'm
waiting for the seller to get back to me with price. It's advertised as
fitting a '74-94 Spider & the owner wasn't sure about fitment on a GTV.
Does anyone here know if this core will work, and if not is there any year
spider core that will since those seem to be a little more common than the
GTVs?
Thanks.
