I kinda understand why he's letting it go too; Haven't worked on any Falcons, but had a friend with early Mustang bitd, and they're the same car under the skin, so I state this with confidence - Ford took the heater core and then built an entire car around it! Those are the easiest cars in the world to work on EXCEPT the heater core. You can - and we have - replace an engine in mush less time on those than a heater core. You can rebuild the front suspension in less time than replacing a heater core. Even tho we never did it, I'm sure you can weld on a new roof and paint it in less time than a heater core replacement... ;)
Second time one of those needed R&I'ed, my friend just said 'screw this! I'll block it off and wear an extra coat!'
As nice as the car in the photo appears, he oughta at least clean up the mess...

That's an interesting take. I just replaced the heater core on my wife's 67 Stang, and while it's a pain in the asterisk, it's really not that big a deal. The biggest issue is getting my 64 year old carcass into position on the floor. The job was simplified by buying a core with extended nipples that go through the firewall so that the hose connections are on the engine side of the wall instead of in the cabin, between the box and the firewall. That would have been a total bitch. I also replaced the cables and resealed and painted the box. All this on a droptop that will probably never use it, but I like them complete. I did the same on a 65 Comet Caliente convertible, and I need to do my 65 Coronet hardtop that was bypassed when I bought it. Apparently heater cores fail after 60 years or so. Who'd a thunk it?

The easiest vehicle I ever replaced a heater core on was my 65 chevy truck. You could stand outside along the fender on the passenger side and you were done. My Dodge Dart was like most, crawl around on your back, not one of my favorite jobs to begin with. You should see what you have to do to change out a bad evaporator box on a minivan.

Now that I think about it...that stuff is almost the same color as Marvel Mystery Oil.



***
Almost the same price on a cents per fluid ounce basis. MMO is slightly cheaper at 81.2 cents per fluid ounce than 83.2 for your Nyquil.

I'm not sure which one tastes better.

He won’t notice that after taking all of that NyQuil.
