Default heater core

Restoring my 49 F1 pickup, I found that I need a new heater core. I tried most of the usual old Ford parts sellers.....cant find one. Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.

Not all truck heaters were Ford. Does it have the logo? Is it the fresh air heater or recirculating?

I took the heater core for my '49 to a local radiator shop and had it recored. IIRC it was about $140.00. Depending on the heater that may be your only option. Mark
