Guest JPromo Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 These were two of the first items I plucked out of my haul and I've yet to confidently ID them. The heater core has 1949 stamped on it and it does strongly resemble Ford heaters of the time but I've yet to find one exactly like this. I believe it's NOS.I have no clue on the grille piece. It's cast aluminum, appears NOS as well. I've run every manufacturer 36-42 I can think of and nothing has stuck out. Unless I'm way off on time period or it's something obvious I've overlooked.Any help appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JPromo Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 How about this door? It resembles an Auburn speedster but the door orientation is standard, so maybe something similar. Wood frame with a steel skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should have looked that one up since I had already ID'd a TR-3 transmission in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Commodore Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 The heater is 1949 Ford.

Guest JPromo Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 The heater is 1949 Ford.I was thinking it had to be--they're too similar not to. My only question mark is what application had a square blower inlet like mine has? Every one I've seen is round like those pictured. Thanks!
