    I have checked most of the usual sources and have come up dry so here is a photo of what I am looking for. It is the valve that controls the flow of coolant to the interior cabin heater core (71 Euro GT). Mine is dead so I'm looking for a source of where to find an exact replacement. Hopefully there is an inexpensive cross reference out there. Any leads would be most appreciated.

    Wow, that looks like you could rebuild it. Is it screwed together? Could you make a new diaphragm for it?

    As a final chapter to this quest I present the final product. The valve I got (in the first picture) was very close to the original but with some light parts changing I was able to get a near perfect match. Close inspection of the original part showed it to have used silver zinc fasteners instead of the yellow zinc ones in the replacement. I had all the required parts re-plated and chamfered the holes to accept the countersunk fasteners. Thank you all again for the lead on the new valve and hopefully this thread will help someone else in the future.
