Snail blower inner wing brackets and air valve

Post by gs.davies »

I’m after a pair of brackets that mount a snail type blower to the inner wing. This is for the early type fresh air heater.

Also after fresh air valve that would be mounted up to the inside of the front panel.

Anyone?

Gordon,
Thinking about the air valve....those are pretty rare........BUT.......there is a solution. The Midget air valve can be adapted to fit .
Needs a little bit of 'tinkering' ,...and they are readily available. I used one on my 61 wagon.
Cheers

I did think about modifying the midget one but I’d probably never get around to it 😂
