Bro, Tom and I have been discussing this issue on my 1969 931 tractor for a bit now. My Allen built cab has the heater core mounted in the roof plenum at the front of the cab. Seams that everyone else that has a factory cab has the old style box heater mounted on the floor beside the seat and my floor board is stamped with knockouts to accomidate the heater hoses for this mounting also, but were never knocked out.
My question is how did Case rout the heater hoses up to the plenum. The 70 series had larger corner pillers and the htr hoses were fed up thuough them, but it is not posible on my cab. The only way that I can invision to conceal the hoses is to fab a cover that bolts to the LH corner cab strut, but the hoses will still be exposed a bit behind the windshield and cowel window glass.
Does anyone else have a factory cab with an overhead heater that could post a pic of the hose routing???
Thanks, Loren
