Heater core

How hard is it to replace a heater core in a 65? Do I have to remove the glove box liner? Is their an easy way or short cuts?

I did mine in my 67, is was pretty easy, just be careful not to break the fiberglass/plastic housing that the core sits in, I had to superglue mine back together, works fine though

I got to play Soaring (aka Glen) here, go to the FAQ section and take a look. If the instructions are not there, they should be.

When you buy the core, get the gasket set, new hose and clamps. Be careful of the defroster plenum, it's cardboard and very fragile. You might consider a new plastic one.
