Re: [Chrysler300] Kerosene Heater

These were a dealer installed option for VW's back in the day.

I have installed several, under the hood above the gas tank.

They would definitely toast you.
Much easier than installing A/C's.

Those were actually gasoline instant heaters - Model 801 for 1957, and Model 803 for 1958. I have no idea how common they were, or what climate area they were more prevalently sold in, but I think they were rarely sold for whatever reason.

Had an essentially similar one of those in a brand new 1960 Corvair back in the day and loved it in blizzard season here. It may even have tipped the balance in my favor when I was dating my wife.

Good afternoon,

           Came accross an article stating the above was an “Option” in 1958 and possibly beyond. My Father was a Factory Service Representative at the time and I never heard of this. Does anyone out there familiar with this ?

                                            Thanks,
