1949 heater control valve advice needed

[Jeff Maltby 4194]

My fire wall heater is out of the car thanks to a leaking rad core . My control valves look NOS, but I only want to remove this heater once in my life. Are rebuild kits available or should I send them out for rebuilding or forget about them ?

Thanks in advance :<)

Jeff,

I don't know if rebuild kits are available, but they can be rebuilt.  Send it to Jim Tucker.  He did the one in my '42; a first class job.

His Web site even has some pics and info on your specific valve.

HTH,
Jeff
