I just started today to put in a new heater core, let me say that from what i have done so far it is a thankless job. I bought the core for $66 and so far I have 6-7 hours in to it. He is what I have done now, I will post more as I go.

As motivation... imagine how much you're saving in labour!

 

...and what's more, it's not 20 below out there yet either

 

I know that part lol. I would have to sell the jimmy to pay for the labor. It could be a lot worse. Have you put on in before?

 

Very good point! It is still warm enough.

 

hurry up dude. the end of the week is suppose to be cold. they are calling for more frosts
