Default HUP Heater

I know that the late 45 model had a personnel heater on the drivers side behind the partition. It used radiator fluid fed into a small core in the heater. A small fan provided the occupants with what I am sure was a whisper of heated air.

Given the cramped interior, if there were two or more soldiers in the back, that would have kept things somewhat warmer than the outside temp.

Further to Bob's list, may I suggest a large dog or a "Winter Wife" (inside Barn joke).
