Default 1970 Firebird Parts Wanted

Looking for a new heater core (non A/C) and good used (or new) heater control cable (non A/C) for a '70 Firebird (non A/C). Thanks!

Teri, Do you mean the heater core, or the heater control cable, or both? Thanks!

Good question...lol. We tried our local Car Quest, but they had nothing in stock, or even listed. I never bought anything from AutoZone yet, but I'll see if they do...O'Reily's too. Thanks for the suggestion!

rock auto is another option too, they usually have better prices than local parts stores.

We found a real copper/brass heater core locally at a radiator shop that they had for a while! So scratch that off the list. I need to see which cable I need as I can't recall if it is the one for the heat control or the vent selector cable.
