Default 56 57 Heater block off

Does any one make a heater block off for the 56 57's?

I assume you are referring to a block off plate for a heater delete Corvette. I am not aware of anyone making this part. I was able to find one at a Carlisle swap meet many years ago. At the price I paid, I think it was an original part rather than a reproduction.
Your only option may be to have one made for you by copying an original.

Chris & Art,

Someone on here does make them. I helped him buy a '67 a few years ago, but I haven't been able to remember his name. I'll see if it's on some paperwork I have.

Todd,
It was me, bought the old yellow 67 up in Minnesota!! I have a few of the heater block off plates which are absolutely correct since they were made exactly like the original one on my Arctic blue 57 in my Avatar!!

Hi, Jim!

How's the '67 doing?

Chris, I highly recommend the plate Jim makes. Fits perfectly-looks right.

It was a great original motor 390HP car, and ran great!! I built a new house and downsized my cars, so it is gone now.
