heater pirating

[68_GMC_910]

I really want a smooth firewall on my jalopy and the original heater and the whole friggen system looks like a big fat steaming pile of ugly. Originally I figured it would be cool to just get rid of the radio and the heat and drive it in the summer only...

well now I want to keep my original AM radio in it and drive it year-round...

the heater in it right now takes up a good bit of space above the floorboards and under the hood... it doesn't get in the way other than creating a massive eyesore on both ends but it got me thinking...

I could maybe try to take the heat off another newer car in the junkyard... like a civic or swift or anything and put it in the cab... so I get a nice smooth firewall AND high-tech heating.

My original idea was just to get one of those cheap 12V heaters and just put it in the winter... my dad said that was retarded and it'll never work... i'd be freezing my ass off bad. Hey, it's better than walking, pops! :b

anybody try this or know anything at all about what I'm planning?
