Keep Your Classic Cool: Vintage & NOS, NORS, and OEM Cooling System Parts
There is nothing worse than seeing that temperature gauge creep into the "Hot" zone during a summer cruise. The cooling system is the lifeblood of your vintage engine, and after decades of service, corrosion and fatigue take their toll.
At Old Car Parts NW, we specialize in NORS (New Old Replacement Stock) cooling components designed to keep your engine running at the perfect operating temperature.
The NORS Advantage: Better Castings, Better Flow
Why hunt for vintage cooling parts? Because fitment and material quality matter.
-
Heavy-Duty Water Pumps: Many of our NORS pumps feature robust iron castings and high-quality impellers that match the original flow rates—unlike cheap modern remanufactured units.
-
Correct Hose Bends: Modern "universal" hoses rarely fit classic engine bays correctly. Our vintage hose inventory features the correct molded bends for a factory-perfect look and seal.
-
Authentic Components: From correct-pressure radiator caps to cast iron thermostat housings, we have the hard-to-find parts to finish your restoration right.

Don't Get Left in the Cold: Vintage Heating System Parts
There is nothing worse than a classic car with no heat—except for one that leaks coolant all over your passenger floorboard. The heating system is often the most neglected part of a restoration until the first cold snap hits or the windshield fogs up and the defroster fails.
At Old Car Parts NW, we stock authentic NOS (New Old Stock) and NORS (New Old Replacement Stock) heating components to restore your cabin comfort and safety.
Why Choose NOS Heating Parts?
-
Copper & Brass Quality: Many modern replacement heater cores are made of lightweight aluminum or plastic. Our inventory features many original-style Copper and Brass heater cores that offer superior heat transfer and durability.
-
The "Ranco" Valve: The heater control valve regulates hot water flow to the cabin. These often rust shut. We stock authentic Ranco and Everhot valves that fit and function correctly, unlike generic plastic replacements.
-
Safety First: A working heater isn't just about comfort; it's about visibility. You need a functioning blower motor and core to power your defroster and keep the windshield clear.
