My unexpected Hurst 300 Find

[polarus]

Is this salvageable. My OEM heater control valve has begun to leak coolant. The housing parts appear to be in excellent condition w/ no cracks. Response at the dash controls is spot on. The rub is where to get gaskets to repair it. Are there any underlining failures I need to look for. If it didn't work so well I would just replace it w/ a all steel unit. The steel units just don't perform well as they have less than desired sensitivity at the dash controls.

Check with Detroit Muscle Technologies, they were going to reproduce the rubber valves that are inside the unit.

I think this sounds funny but it might be I have plastic Bucket seat release bezels good condition. So it's possible to make new ones.. I must check my parts. I have some NOS Hurst
parts in Finland.Also used ones too. I got my Hurst to Finland 1996.
I must check my parts what I have.

Hi David
Next time when I go to our garage I try find them. I´ll quite sure I have good ones.
I got them almost 30 years ago, when I got my 300 Hurst to Finland.

Could you give us your door sticker date, and I'll add you to the Hurst Build Info spreadsheet (unless you don't want me to) in the Nerd thread.
