Reply To: Heater/Thermostat housing

Thank you Alistair and David. Alistair I had seen your post on the subject and agree with you both that the Clayton heater would look right and is a period correct accessory. I have bid on a couple recently on eBay, however the seem to reach around £150 and I was enquiring if an alternative had been used, other than perhaps the Morris Minor circular Smiths heater.

I am surprised that the heater works efficiently without a thermostat, I have a 1934 Wolseley Hornet Special, to which a Smiths heater has been fitted, however the engine, despite having no fan just a water pump, the heater did not get hot in winter until I added a thermostat.

Thanks for your thoughts, I will keep looking for Clayton, I like the look of them.

Thanks Jack
