Yeah, that system sure seems like it would have been simpler. Even if they had wanted to add the fresh air add-on (that I assume the early cars didn't have) it could have been done in the early manner. Just think how nice it would have been to not have to worry about heater cables to remove an engine. Add in more easily servicable, and durable, heater and fresh air hoses, and that would be just about ideal. -- ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
