In a van, down by the river,
My sport fury project has all the tubes broke off the heater control buttons. Can a new control be bought, or will I have to find another? Also after 46 or 47 years will the valves that turn the dampers be any good?
 
From the website www.1962to1965mopar.ornocar.com :

"Almost all the switches in our old cars have the vacuum ports broken off of them. I have machined a repair kit to fix this problem.

I will repair your switch and send it back to you for $35.00,(money order or cashiers check only) shipping included. You can't buy these switches from any vender. My part will make it work like new. Also, something new I've added to the switch fix is a repair that will fix the slides that have the socket broken off that the push buttons fit into. Price is $5.00 each. I can only offer this if you have the vacuum port repair done. The labor and cost of shipping would be too great otherwise. View vacuum control switch example

Another new product is the vacuum switch that bolts onto the blower motor switch on 1962 to 1965 AC cars. The cost to redo this switch is $35.00 shipping included. View blower motor vacuum control switch, Before View blower motor vacuum control switch, After
I also fix the temperature control switch for 1962-1965 air cars that is located on the plenum box behind the glove box. This temperature control switch is almost always broken. I can rebuild yours for $40.00. The replacement is made out of aluminum to last a lifetime. Send yours with money order or cashier's check. View temperature control switch. Shipping is included.

I can also install new wafer boards inside almost all switches from 1962 to 1965 (or up to 1972). The cost is 5.00 per board. Ac/heat has 4 boards, heat only has 3 boards. I am the only one who makes these boards.

Your switch could be rebuilt inside and out for a maximum of $70.00. Most switches don't need all the fixes. Contact: Anthony Powell, Dept. 62 to 65 Mopar, 1305 North Grant Drive, Sherman, TX 75092 Or e-mail [email protected] and tell Anthony you saw his ad here."
 
According to the guys on the 62-65 Mopar site, NAPA sells a replacement switch. The part number is NAPA-Echlin HC205
 
The NAPA unit isn't a 4 button switch. I suggest you contact Anthony Powell mentioned above. He replaced the nipples on my switch last May. I am finally finishing the car up (65 Satellite 440/727) and found out two weeks ago the switch had an internal vacuum leak. I called Anthony after almost 18 months and without hesitation he offered to send me a replacement. I sent him my switch and he fixed it and mailed it back within a couple of days. He even paid the postage for me to return my switch.
 
I had mine rebuilt by Anthony. Need to find time to install them. I am very happy with his work and fast work he provided.
 
I sent him 4 switches on monday. He just emailed me to tell me he got them today (wed). And that he would have them done and ship them back friday. In all my car days, the only one I ever seen quicker than that was, our very own detmatt1 from FBBO. I sent him a money order today for some parts. Checked my email to see he sent the parts yesterday. Brings meaning to the statement, "I need them yesterday" Thanks guys. Kent.
 
Anthony repaired all three of my "64 with AC switches recently. They seem to function great. Right now I am in the process of fixing the leaks at the block attachment to the nipple ports. I think they are just too old and dry. I am in the process of making new ones from a block of hard rubber.
