All of which would have worked better with a decent fan... 
What was GM's proposed redesign?

Forget  mine, consider GM's clever reverse logic. When it couldn't adapt the 
car to  changing emissions conditions in California, it deleted the inadequate 
Air  Conditioning, turbo charger and 140 heads. After protest, it gave back 
140  heads but detuned cam timing. Consider all those extremely costly 
redesigns to  the product line necessitated by the limitations of the cooling system 
and  emissions regulations. There was a redesign of the cooling system but it 
never  made production. Despite the incentive to implement its redesign of the  
cooling system in 1966 (profit), the company did not put any redesign the  
cooling system into production to enable basic air conditioning to accompany  
emissions equipment. Why do we suppose GM made that choice?

Also,  elimination of the 1960 choke mechanism and the direct air heater 
accommodated  the creation of station wagons and expansion of the vehicle line for 
 trucks/vans.
