$329.00

Built as a 1957 Chevy Passenger Car Standard Recirculating.

All heaters were options in 1957.  The main difference between the deluxe and the standard recirculating heater core is that the deluxe one heats outside air coming into the car while the standard recirculating one heats inside air.  In humid weather using outside air for the defroster is perceived as superior to using the inside air.

Standard heater cannot  be shut off  ( bummer ). The hot engine water circulates through the heater core at all times and the heater core will radiate heat into the passenger compartment, even with the fan off. The common solution is to either install a shutoff valve, or disconnect the heater in the summer.

Build time estimates [Feb 2025]

Brass/Black Model Ts

Our longstanding foundry (supplier) closed and all production was shifted to a neighboring foundry.  Apparently many of the closed foundry's workers were ineligible for rehire by the new foundry due to more aggressive immigration enforcement and the union has no employees to provide.  As of 2-20-25, we should receive castings in March 2025 and can resume production then. 

In the interim, we have been working with our one-off foundry to have pattern boxes made and these are trickling in in smaller batches and we will produce what we can.

Model As 5-6 weeks

Heater cores ~6 weeks

Model A and 32 Ford Street rods 6 weeks

Common street rods ~12-15 weeks

Tricky customs & complicated restorations ~16 weeks months

We appreciate your patience as we continue to recruit and train new fabricators and manage the labor shortfall our country has been experiencing.
