Re: Heather and defroster 1958 pick-up
you might look for a heater used in a fleet type truck or van, a lot of times they are simple box units like were used as dealer add on's in the 50's. Something like this might work too:

Re: Heather and defroster 1958 pick-up
As your in Europe try www.s-v-c.co.uk they have a range of heaters and a valve for the hot water feed, I used the Clayton with defroster for front screen, works great in my 54 truck. Your truck looks good I like the 58/59 model years I would like to find a short bed fleetside.

Re: Heather and defroster 1958 pick-up
If you want to go stock, I still have a 'standard' heater (chevy 56) somewhere ... I started pulling it apart, but then I found a deluxe unit...
The core was not leaking when I bought the truck, but I think the fan was not working anymore ... have to test that again ... ... and I'm not that far away ... |
