This is the troublshooting procedure from the 1972 chassis service manual. Some things to test out. There are many threads from much more experienced members on here. Good luck. Many more procedures in the manual. I think the manual is still available on Internet Archive

Some news, I got the car into the local garage/test station for a safety check before an MOT. (UK's annual vehicle check- not required on 40+ year old cars but cars must be kept roadworthy). All it needs are rear shock absorbers and repair a corroded brake pipe.

I assume you have a car(what model?) with auto temp 2? Do you still have the auto temp servo? There could be many reasons why your heater is not working. Has it worked in the past? Faulty amplifier, vacuum leaks, faulty check valves etc. There are many threads on ac/heater HVAC on the...

So I got the registration documents and they have put the engine number as 'NOT KNOWN' Your advice was the right one. Now I can get the plates made and take it out on the road for its first drive..:) They have recorded it as a Chrysler coupe 2 door... didn't put it down as an Imperial or...

What is that wheel thingy connected to the exhaust manifold?

It's definitely not a 73 engine. Looks like 10-19-66 ? I would love to know it's history. No serial number. I will make one up and put it on a copper plaque...

Thanks so much.. I will have to have a good look in case there is something there.

Wow, it's a 1973 car. So the engine could have been swapped at some time? Thanks for that.

I need to locate the engine serial number for the UK registration. Internet searches say it's on a flat plate on the drivers side behind the AC compressor. Is this the correct location? I can't seem to make much out, I have done some engine cleaning, so tomorrow I can have another...

That's helpful. Nothing to do the the AC. Is there any vacuum reserve tank somewhere?

Thanks for the link...That's great. I have bought the 73 ones (hard copy- body & chassis) waiting for them to arrive. This will give me something to research for now. I also am sure there is some kind of vacuum canister removed.. does anyone have pictures of near the front above the horns?

Drivers window dropped suddenly about 8" looks like there are some teeth missing from the motor! Got a replacement part from Rock Auto and wrestled with the regulator and got it all back and working. ( thanks to going over the forums with great info)

So I put this bypass heater valve on to see what happens... no prizes for the answer..! A dribble of steaming coolant all over the footwell My question. Can the heater core be replaced without removing the entire unit? If the unit needs to come out, can you do this without dismantling the...

That's brilliant.. the ashtray setup is perfect.

Thank you for the links. I am weighing up the way to move forward. It really helps knowing there are solutions that can be looked into.

Fitted a new one today, worked a charm! I was thinking the ignition cylinder was faulty, cheers for the info..

Some oven cleaner! ( Mr muscle) + scothbrite type scouring pad. It's going to get a respray some time. But for now I will clean it up.

Started on some cleaning. Just one side, to start with. It's definitely looking better.

Thank you for your reply. It has given me a clearer picture of a route to start. First, test the heater core. I will remove the carpet ( it's new) before I connect it up. Taking the carpet out is something I was planning on anyway so as to get an inspection of the floors. If it is good...
