I removed the original 75 year old driver's side heater from the 1948 Willys CJ2A Jeep project over two years ago (way back in Ep. 41) so I could have room to figure out some wiring issues. Last month, I pulled it from the scrap pile and found that remarkably, the heater was not in as bad shape as it looked, and I was able to salvage it in the previous episode. It is now way too nice and clean for this Jeep but it's going back in for the winter. (And no, I still don't have a hard top or soft top for the Jeep, just a summer top which does nothing to keep the heat in! Priorities, right?)
