Thats an aftermarket heater painted and striped. Nothing flash all rattle can. Trick is to heat the can up in boiling water first and paint on a warm day.

Smooth is probably more knowledgable on things aftermarket/nasco style heaters. It does work quite well though! Still have to hook up the demister tubes.

Hi devil rod, where did you get it from, how much and how hard to fit and make it work in the old girl ? I have just started driving my FB and it's bloody cold :shock: doesn't really bother me too much but the missus complains a bit.

I was given it many moons ago off a mate of my dad's. Easy to fit and hook up. Bolted it to the firewall (welded studs on prior to any paint), ran Heater hose into the interior, fitted an inline tap hooked to the dash control for heat. Power to the fan, job done! Basically....

Watch on eBay for Beehive type or Smiths and NASCO type ones. A couple of behives went for under $100 just last week and they had working fans in them.
