57 Heater Delete Plate

[Michael K.]

I was wondering if anyone had any good suggestions on how to repair the holes in my heater delete plate. Someone had installed an aftermarket heater unit.
My thought was to take it to the local welding shop and see what they could do with it. Thanks in advance.

(local welding shop) yes and a good one and no one will ever know.

Agree, local welding shop should be able to fix it as good as new. Make sure they don't overheat and distort it.

A good body shop might be a thought... *NM*

Are the repro plates exact or do they differ from originals ?

Where can you get the repo plates from?

I got one from R.L. Williams or it may have been after he sold to Grossmuller (sp) .

Carrol had them in stock at that time. This was in the late 90s and I'm not sure they are a perfect repro as I don't have one to compare it to.

I will see what I can find.
