Heater Help Needed - 1960 Apache

[Chris Kersey]

Hello All!

Proud to be making my first post!

Acquired a 1960 Apache in July. Hood is a 63/64, from what I can tell. In July, my knowledge of vehicular mechanics extended to the limit of how to change a battery.

That said, over the last 4 months, I’ve successfully replaced the plugs, plug wires, alternator, slave cylinder, master cylinder, fuel pump, water pump, window regulator, starter, and carburetor (including the tuning) - all on my own (with a whole lot of help YouTube, Google, and this Site!)

As Winter approaches, my attention is now on the Heater - but, I have no idea where to start. Can anyone point me in a good direction? When adjusting the ‘Air’ and ‘Fan’ tabs, nothing happens at all. Assuming the wiring to unit is the culprit, but again - I have no idea what I’m doing, as far as the Heater. Components look pretty good, but I’m not underestimating the ‘unknown’.

To give some history, the truck sat for 6-7 years prior to my ownership. Also, as you can see in photos attached- after market AC is in place. It works. Can anyone help me out by sending me in a good direction relative to getting the Heater going? I love using this gem as my daily driver, but we’re beginning to have colder mornings here in central Georgia!

Thanks in advance, for any direction you can give!
