I’m dismantling my 1941 Cadillac and saw these when I pulled the seats. I had no idea they thought of heated seats in 1941. There are circular heater cores around each fan and they’re plumbed into the main heater lines. Pretty cool!

Those were the days when Cadillac really meant something!
Looking forward to seeing how this progresses. |

I had a '47 Lincoln coupe with very similar heaters. Watching your build with interest. Love that big, old stuff.

Put those in your 914 and you'll be able to levitate!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
I guess the passenger doesn't need to be quite as warm as the driver |

Interesting heated seating.
That car is so big the interior looks like a room in a house, not a vehicle. |
