Nissan Patrol 1959-1980 Heater Core

HC 62-69 Nissan Patrol - confirm drawing

Regular price $329.00

This was patterned from a 1967 North American Market Nissan Patrol Gen II.  We require review/signoff of a drawing or a pattern to be provided.  If you own a Datsun Patrol or Jonga or Australian or South East Asia production Patrol c. 1959-1980 contact us directly regarding the pattern.

If you are searching for an obsolete, one-off or hard to find copper and brass heater core for your older Nissan you're in luck. We make our own cores and fabricate our own tanks so, naturally, we get asked to build custom heater cores or "small radiators."  If we do not have a pattern you may need to ship yours in.

Our build queue varies.

Made in the USA


We make to order. Please allow adequate time for us to build.

Build time estimates [Feb 2025]

Brass/Black Model Ts

Our longstanding foundry (supplier) closed and all production was shifted to a neighboring foundry.  Apparently many of the closed foundry's workers were ineligible for rehire by the new foundry due to more aggressive immigration enforcement and the union has no employees to provide.  As of 2-20-25, we should receive castings in March 2025 and can resume production then. 

In the interim, we have been working with our one-off foundry to have pattern boxes made and these are trickling in in smaller batches and we will produce what we can.

Model As 5-6 weeks

Heater cores ~6 weeks

Model A and 32 Ford Street rods 6 weeks

Common street rods ~12-15 weeks

Tricky customs & complicated restorations ~16 weeks months

We appreciate your patience as we continue to recruit and train new fabricators and manage the labor shortfall our country has been experiencing.
