Hey guys. I have a 57 Tbird with a 312.
I just pulled the car out of storage and took for a spin. Ran great. However I smelled antifreeze when I parked her. Popped the hood to see the Heater Valve leaking again. It was the exact same problem I had last year to the day. I replaced the Heater Valve with new one last year. Does anyone make quality parts anymore? I know I can bypass the heater but I like the idea of heat on these cool days.
Any suggestions?

Thanks
