1) 10-bolt rear end. Open, will have to check ratio. Includes axles but no drums/backing plates. $200 obo? I'll follow up with some pics in the coming days.
2) Rear control arms (3) - $20/arm, upper control arm body bracket/reinforcement plate/shims - $35, and panhard rod - $20. Bushings are shot. $75 for the whole set... or $50 if you take it all with the rear end?
3) Steering box - $20, pitman arm - $10, idler arm - $10, and center link - $10. I don't think I have tie rod ends, but I do have a selection of steering arms - $15/ea, and I think spindles and drums - $50/pr. Take all my steering stuff for $75?
4) Radiator, 283/PG, no A/C, with spacer - $50? SOLD!
5) Heater core/blower assembly, no A/C - $20?
All of this stuff is out of what was a running, driving car (until I started in on it!), so to the best of my knowledge it is all in working condition (ie heater core doesn't leak, steering box is good, etc). I say "undesirable" because it is all low-spec stuff that commonly gets upgraded, but hopefully someone can find a use for it.

Interesting that the rad was in a 66. I don't doubt it was in a 66 but the rad is actually a 65 rad, with the neck for the upper hose on the passenger side.
I wish there was a cheap way to get it here, I could use it on an engine test stand.

I was wondering about that actually... Googling 3158903 actually turns up results for earlier cars too. Is "64 B" a date code?

I should correct my statement, it's a 65 or prior rad because of the upper hose location. It could well be 64, I don't know those cars very well. Perhaps someone here can tell a 64 vs 65 rad?

I believe it is a 64 rad, looks identical to to one in my shed. 283 powerglide. My new griffin rad is the same configuration with both hoses on the passenger side.

Just curious. On the lower control arms, are the forward bushings the same size as the rear bushings?
So no, they are definitely different sizes. I'm not sure what diameter they use to define the size of the bushings, but here are are few photos illustrating the difference:
Harrison is an American GM rad manufacturer. Canadian rads had nothing on them.
I have a newly-cored '64 Harrison-embossed rad. It is embossed HARRISON on top, and came from a '64 Chevy Impala.

Thanks for the info you guys
It's confirmation of my thoughts re no logo on Canadian rad and heater core tanks too
Great to see a pic of the date code tag soldered to the rad core
Worthwhile to reproduce
The part number etc is on the drip hose side of the rad frame on a Harrison rad I have
It decodes to 65 Chevy passenger with 283, PG, no a/c, non heavy duty
No idea if Canadian rads have their frames stamped the same way BUT the frame is separate from the rad so?
In 1966 the Canadian B bodies did have Harrison on the tanks, at least my friend's unmolested 66 Impala does. Maybe they changed it up after 65? We know the 2 years don't interchange because of the opposite sides for the top hose.

The Quebec plant also started building full size Chevy for 66 so maybe only Harrison was able to meet Canadian supply demands by then
Confirmation for 64 and 66 with 65 still being a point of contention after all it seems
