Re: Our '66 Short Fleet Build

joe,
I know you hate pictures on your forum but this is what I use. you can burn both kerosene and deisel. it has a thermostat and works real well. I leave the door cracked just in case but the fumes are not that bad.

Sorry. I've been a bad Jason this year. Will your ole lady let you leave the door that goes from the garage to the house open? Sorry, I'm not being serious again.

The doors will have to be removed,and it will contact the top of the door jamb were the rubber seal goes.I used 4 weldig clamps to clamp the angle to the cab just for a little extra security.The thickness I dont remember,but you will have to besure one tube will slide in the other.

Re: Our '66 Short Fleet Build

Hey Joe, I bought a heater from Northern tool that runs on 220v. Its small but heats up a nice area.......they have larger units that were reasonably priced. Just need to do an electrical remodel first.

Re: Our '66 Short Fleet Build

The one I have is made by a Canadian Co. called Ouellet. It may be too small for your application....its 20a/240v....4800W. I think the model is #020075. Its not labeled, but I think its correct. I know they had bigger units with more output. I have used it on a couple cold mornings in my carport and it warms the local area pretty well. If it was enclosed it would do better.

It was only 50 today......by weekend it will be in the 30's....cold for the valley. Im wearing my thermal shorts again.
