Re: Vintage Air heater 506101

The Vintage Air heater arrived today and I have studied how the controls can be mounted on the original heater control. I just have a mock-up for now and I will need to add spacers to the controls and one of my levers is broken and will need to be replaced. The heat control rotated almost 360 degrees, so there was no way to attach it to the original controls. The knob shows where I will install the control and use the knob showing in the pictures. I will need to tap the levers where the original knobs would have been located.
I will drill and tap these tomorrow and make up the spacers and post some more pictures. The heater control will need to be installed from behind the dash and the chrome face screwed back on from the front.
The light still works, but I will remove the lettering since it doesn't corresponded to any of the controls.
