Yes, there are reproductions out there that aren't to expensive. most of them work decent too.

I have discovered, the throw length on their lever is somewhat different from stock and my original and then reproduction heater valve cable did not get full cold-hot travel on the control head when attached to the repop valve. You can offset it to one side or the other, or modify the cable.

Thanks, I'll check that when I get it.

Wow, got a package from RockAuto today, with the brackets I ordered, not the valve yet.
But 5 days to Sweden, thats the fastest shipping I ever experienced!
And no custom fees or sales tax added! :)

The other half of the order is probably on a slow boat making it's way around the Cape of Good Hope.....  ;)

The brackets are for the future restoration.
