Re: Heaters?
My '40 has a hot water heater.
I live in Michigan, can't really enjoy your ride in the spring or the fall without one. |

These were all originally in cold weather states: Ohio, Colorado, Nebraska, Wyoming. I've found it's hard to find fan parts for the Ford Script heaters, and hard to find heat exchangers for the exhaust heaters, if that's a factor for you. Since they were mostly aftermarket or dealer installed, be hard to find numbers.... Gordon

The 39 Ford C91 will be getting a Tropic Air added for those fine late fall foliage tours.

Re: Heaters?
Given my location it will come as no surprise that my 39 Deluxe had a heater installed. It is a B.F.Goodrich connected up to the cooling system by hoses. One to the lower right radiator hose and the other to the top of the right head. I removed it years ago for reasons I can't recall but still have it. The stick on glass, later plastic, "frost shields" were standard equipment on cars here in winter. The weak heaters needed a little help in our cold weather.

Re: Heaters?
My '52 has a very good stock heater, and since I drive my car every weekend it gets a real work out here.

Re: Heaters?
The pickup has a good working Southwind heater. The stock unit in the '53 Courier provides plenty of heat. I have electric seat heaters in the hot rod for the cooler days.

Re: Heaters?
39 Deluxe has a Ford hot water heater. Went to a lot of trouble and expense to buy and restore it but it works great.
49 F-1 has what I thought was a factory hot water heater but some say it is a Firestone item. 49 Mercury has factory fresh air heater. I drive these cars year around if the streets free from salt and I really appreciate the heaters Model A has a manifold heater which is much better than none, and works best on a hot day. Merry Christmas to all! |
