Default 73 core support

I need to buy a core support for a 73. Any suggestions where to purchase one.
Anybody dealt with Southern car parts?
Thanks, Bob

Default Coffman I think is the best.

I think supports made by Coffman are the best, here is a link to their website:

https://www.coffmancorvette.com/prod...iator-supports

Sometimes you can find Coffman on ebay and other places. Their website prices look high to me, but these supports are expensive.

Hope this helps.

+1 on Coffman. I think a lot of Vette parts sellers carry Coffman. The one for my '72 LT-1 was an exact reproduction.
