I would have to add some kind of heater/defroster improvement. Since the  
"Fresh" air (haha) heater was used on 61's and later, it applies to earlies and  
lates. Perhaps some kind of sealed heat exchanger could be used to provide  
filtered & heated air from somewhere other than out of the underside of the  
motor. I realize the cost (both in dollars and gas mileage) of the gas heater.  
Even ignoring the CO output of exhaust leaks, and the hard-O-ring oil dripping  
to the exhaust manifold, the "Fresh" air system still passes along any engine 
 compartment smells - whether due to leaks or anything else. There should be  
something better. - Seth Emerson
