<VV> [SCG] '62 with gasoline heater now on YouTube

[Dave Newell]

Hi Bill,
Looks like someone (a dealer or individual) did a nice job of installing the heater, probably from a leftover 61 accessory kit or another car.
It would be interesting to see if there's any evidence that the car had a direct air heater at one time. If a '62 car was ordered with the intent of installing a gas heater at the dealership, it would have been ordered with the heater delete option and there should be correct cover plates over the heater hose holes in the front shrouds and of course cover plates over the heater air outlets below the rear seat and at floor level in the front. 
These delete plates were the same pieces that were standard equipment in '61 when no heater of any kind was standard. Technically they can only be called delete plates after 1961.
Even though we haven't finished decoding 62 Fisher Body option codes, the body plate in the engine compartment should be coded for the heater delete option. Can you take a photo of the plate or copy the information for us? The VIN would be helpful too.
Yes, the jack isn't Corvair.
Dave

I shot some video of the '62 Monza coupe for sale in Hoboken, NJ and  
posted it on YouTube.  My primary intention in doing so was to document the  rare 
(for '62), optional gasoline heater so the extent to which the car itself  
is featured is somewhat limited but I did try to give an idea of the 
condition  of the car's body and interior since the car is for sale.  If interested 
or  with any questions, please contact the seller at:
