  1. Clearing out the basement. Both of these parts came off my 2003 crossflow-engined S3 Caterham with around 2500 miles of use since new. Both pieces are functional and in good shape—they'd be great to keep around as spares, if you have a Caterham, or if you're building up a Seven clone and want quality, factory-sourced parts to install. Both were removed from my car in working condition. The heater was pulled from the car because I replaced the car's scuttle panel and had to convert to a newer-style factory heater; the radiator was replaced because I thought I had a leak but didn't. (I mistook a faulty drain-plug gasket for a real leak. To reiterate: the radiator does NOT have a leak and is in fine working condition.) Heater comes with the factory heater valve and the two hoses that attach it to the heater itself. This is the plastic-housing unit used for years and years on these cars. This style is NLA from Caterham UK, and you can only get the newer type, which takes a smaller hole in the firewall and requires an adapter plate. The core is in good shape and not leaking, though I'd probably replace the foam insulation tape on the outside of the housing. The heater valve isn't sticking and works fine. The radiator is the aluminum unit used on crossflow-engined S3s and a handful of other engines—it's more than capable of cooling a great deal of power. It's currently NLA from Caterham UK: http://caterhamparts.co.uk/product.php?id_product=2653 This one is in good shape. Had it pressure tested following the suspected leak, after I'd replaced it with a new unit, and it holds without leaking or dropping pressure. It's missing the top and bottom drain/sensor plugs, but those are easily sourced. Asking $125 for the radiator and $125 for the heater, including shipping anywhere in the continental United States. When they're available—not often—Cat wants £185 for the radiator new. The heater update kit with retrofit panel is around £200: http://caterhamparts.co.uk/product.php?id_product=2974 No guarantees on this stuff because they're used parts, but there's no reason you shouldn't be able to put these on a car and have them serve you well for years to come.
