Realizing that a gas heater would probably be a good alternative to buying bigger than stock heater boxes, I am now contemplating the amount of work that would be needed to install this.

Does anyone have a complete list of parts that I would need to purchase? My car is a 73 Super with just a regular blower fan, so I would have to get any ducting additional switches, actual heater, etc.... I just don't know what.

Thanks,
-Nick

I would look for a Thing in a junkyard. My BIL has one with the gas heater, and you have to crack the windows open on the coldest day. They can really cook you.
