Macodel, You stated that the South Wind Heater is notorious for being problemetric and dangerous. I am near 80 and have owned many cars with SW heaters, in fact have had a 35 ford with one for over 50 years with no problems. My father was a ford dealer, installed many SW heaters from the 30s up thru the 40s. I have never heard of or seen a SW heater caused fire or accident. I am wondering where you got your facts concerning them My experiance with them is that they did and do a fine job and were very reliable.
