Thanks Bill, I was not previously aware of that.  I DID say that I'm not a 
pro on EMs.
Later, JR

Let's clear something up. He said this is a Coupe, which means there are 
long hoses running through the rocker panels.  Only on the convertibles did 
they pressurize the rocker.  The convertible rockers have an extra 
reinforcement panel running through them which precludes the use of the 
hose.

So, is there a rust problem where you are?  The pic which showed the half 
shaft looked pretty rusty on the axle.

The reason that I ask that is because you want heat to the windshield.. The 
heat has to pass through the rocker panels on an EM.  The rocker panels are 
pressurized to get heat forward and if they have any rust-through, much of 
that needed pressure will escape before it ever makes it to the front.
