Heater core box
I removed my heater core box today and discovered that the metal on the back side is rusted out pretty bad from a leaking heater core and a vehicle that has been sitting for many years, I have been trying to locate where I can find what I need but can't seem to find anyone that carrys those pieces, has anyone else ran into this problem before and where might I find another back plate or another box with the back plate still attached?

Re: Heater core box
Is it the firewall that is rusted out or the heater core box? I'm sure you can get a heater core box in the classified section.

Re: Heater core box
My firewall is in great shape no rust at all, it is the back of heater core box that is shot. Was curious if anyone else has run into this problem before. I can take some pics if needed.
