I have heard of someone putting an electric heater in his MG. Seems like a nice alternative to the water ones...immediate heat. Anyone do this in their datsun? -- Evan Troxel Alta Loma, CA '66 SPL311

I don't recall kerosene fired heaters, but I had a 58 Beetle with a gasoline fired heater. In denver, with up to a foot of snow on the car I would go out in the morning and start the heater and go ba

I didn't have that much trouble with rustin. I thought that was why they put the heater boxes right under the valve covers so the oil would leak on them and keep them from rusting. Then the problem w

Salty northeast winters tended to eat heater shrouds -- and roadsters, too. I don't recall an oil smell. Must have been tight gasketing (until the whole thing rusted into a pile.) - Bob -- R.W. Mann

How big a battery do you have? Let's use your run-of-the-mill home space heater as an example. They put out a reasonable stream of warm air and consume about 1300 watts to do so. Being purely resist
