When I was in college in the late 50's my Model A coupe was having engine trouble but I found a 1930 Chevy coach for $100. The chevy was a good substitute for the laid up Model A. School was a 4 hour trip and I would run it every other week or two. The Chevy had no heater but it had a radiator cover where you could unsnap small sections at a time to adjust the engine heat on the go. To keep the windshield clear I made a copper box that fit on the dash just under the windshield. That was filled with candle wax with a few wicks in the wax. This worked great and the comments I got from people coming the other way were priceless. The cabin temperature was brutal but when you are young we don't seem to notice. Jack
