I am in need of a heater core for my 46 HUDSON . Does anyone make a replacment or will a brand-x core fit in the heater box of the 46?

All the help is needed.

Thanks Rudy

  • Go down to the post where someone is parting out a 46 . Maybe you can get lucky :)

    Rudy, 1941 to 1950 all used same core. I have some used ones that are unmarked. Give me the dimensions and I will check what I have.

    Thanks so much. Rudy.

    If the end tanks of your heater core are OK, any radiator shop can replace the core

  • 'Just a word of advice on heater cores.......my 54 ended up leaking all over my new carpet. I took it out to have repaired and my rad guy said it was not repairable that I needed a new core and he took the time to show me how the cores back then were extemely thin copper and there is not much to work with. I could see his point and gave him the go ahead to repace it with a new one. Now I have 2 more original heater cores in my shop but they are the same age...old and I'm not about to put another old core in my car so it can start leaking. So my advice is...spend some money and have a new core made for your heater and know that it will be leak free...there...Jim

    Thanks to all on the Heater advice.

    I will have a New Core installed in the end-tanks.
