Mk1 blower fan - any upgrade?

#1 Post by iani » Sat Feb 04, 2023 5:03 pm

I have resurrected the heater in my Mk1 PFL Estate, it generates a reasonable heat but the fan isn't up to distributing it, has anyone found a better fan that fits?

Personally ,I enjoy my car for what it is, a 56 year old car that was made with foibles,like almost every car of the time, but that's why I (we) love them!

each to their own eh Bill, I have a mix of modified and unmodified cars, this Mk1 has already been converted from Auto to Manual, that's a large chunk of originality gone. If I can make it a more comfortable year round drive, what's not to like.
