Did you have the fender off, or was the camera just tucked up inside the fender? > Driver's wheel off, camera held just outside the front drum. Totally random photo, it was dark out and the flash didn't go off.

This is my "Perfection" gas heater, used in 62-64 Canadian Type 3s. An interesting "feature" of this heater is that it has no fuel pump. There is an additional fuel line from the engine back up to the front of the car. -- Everett Barnes '63 361 '66 343 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
