Re: [T3] Gas-heater and Automatic

["shackedup" <shackedup@home.com>]

I'll take some photos of the spare tire well heater.  They'll be ready in a
couple of weeks.  It's really quite clever how they stuff it in there, side
to side in the very front part of the apron.  I'm quite sure that it is a
BN2, but maybe someone can confirm this.  It seems that they used the top of
the tank mount style up to about '65, then the east/west mount for a while,
maybe into '67  (I'm guessing) then back to the top of the tank style!

I believe that  the BN6 Tom mentioned is actually called a BA4.  It's a type
4 heater that was mounted in some of the t3's in the '69 model year.  There
was a great dispute about these heaters a while back but Jason Weigel
located info in a parts book that confirmed their existence.  The parts book
indicates that they were used from Chassis no. 319 108 900 to April 1969.  I
know of three cars with these heaters  2 Notchbacks and one Squareback.
The Notchbacks were both Canadian export models but the owner of the square
tells me it was purchased in Germany.
