Default Help with blend door, or whole heater box assy

Hello all, I was given a 89 Dakota from my father recently. Sat for almost 10 years, step by step I got it running, purrs like a kitten. Heater core went while re-breaking it in. I removed the heater box assy to find the blend door shaft was broken off flush. Cannot for the life of me find one online. Was wondering if anyone out there has the door or the whole box assy. It is a non-AC truck, don't know if that matters. I wanna finish the truck and drive it to my dads and let him take it out for a spin. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I live in PA. Thanks in advance

Keep an eye on eBay one may show up and you could also try rockauto online if you haven't yet they are pretty good. Another option could be junkyard or call AutoZone.

You may try this site. http://www.car-part.com/ FWIW I seen a heater assy. for a non AC 89 listed for $50.00. But I would bet that the junkyards would ship. Good luck.
