Can anyone help this fellow with a 39 Pontiac


I got this email tonight:

Hello
My name is Brian Croker and I live in a little town called Pollock Pines in California. My 15 year old daughter and I are piecing together a '39 Pontiac, model 2819 which I am told is a Deluxe 8 Touring sedan. We are a quite a ways away from driving the car although we have completed many small projects on the car over the 1 year we have owned it. 
First, I am writing because I have had no luck in our area and have posted this same request in a few of the forums here in the U.S., but have gotten no responses. The moderator of a U.S. forum suggested that I contact our " Northern " friends and ask my same question. That made sense to me because the Canadian area of the Americas gets more cold weather than many of our states. 
My question is this, do you have any members that might have a '39 Pontiac....either 2 or 4 door, that might be willing to take a picture of their heater assembly and send up a picture? I have decided that along with all the other small projects needing to be completed on this car, that I should start thinking about finding and installing a heater since we too live in a fairly cold part of California. I can't seem to find anyone that has a '39 with a heater....and actually, I've had no responses at all. I am just trying to get an idea of where exactly the heater/defroster mounts, which side of the heater the inlet/outlet water tubes protrude through the firewall, if heater/defroster outlet ducts are at the top of the unit or near the bottom. 
I've found a number of heaters that I think would work, but I'd really like to see a picture or an illustration from a brochure just so I have a better idea as to how it mounts and what it looks like. 

Can anyone help this guy out? Carl, do you have a parts book with any illustrations?

These are a few pictures of a car we found last year, I enlarged the photo's and you can see the heater core pipes coming through the fire wall. Inside you can also see the heater housing below the dash. I know these pic's don't show much but we can go take some better pic's if this is what your looking for.

Part Brand:Deluxe RED HEAD Car Truck Accessory Water Heater

For sale is a RARE NOS Vintage Orginal Super Deluxe RED HEAD Car or Truck Heater. The heater dates back to the 1930's to 1940's, this heater was an option on chevy and chrysler cars. The heater is brand new (NOS), never used from the 1930's. I recieved the heater in all orginal condition with the box and all mounting and operating parts. The heater had some shelf  wear from sitting in the box for so long,  so I completely disassembled and refurbished the paint. I oiled and tested the 6 volt fan; it works great.  I pressure tested the heater core, to make sure it was still leak free. I had the heater housing powder coated in a silver vein finish, other than that the heater is all orginal. Measures 11"W x 8"H x 10"D.  The last photo shows a voltage drop resistor, it allows a 6 volt motor to run on a 12 volt power supply. If you would like the resistor it will cost an extra $20.00, let me know at the close of the auction if you want it. This would look great on any period correct hot rod, rat rod, roaster, or any other vintage auto. If you have any questions please ask. All sales are final no returns.  

This Accessory Heater would easily  work on any 1930, 1931, 1932, 1933, 1934, 1935, 1936, 1937, 1938, 1939, 1940, 1941, 1942, 1943, 1944, 1945, 1946, 1947, 1948, 1949, 1950 Ford, Chevy, Buick, Dodge, Studebaker, Plymouth, Mercury, Packard, Oldsmobile, and other vintage cars.

Please make payment within 5 days of auction ending. The item will ship within 2 days of cleared payment. Please contact me if you are bidding from outside the United States. Thanks


On Apr-03-11 at 19:44:59 PDT, seller added the following information:

In the photos the screws that hold the two halves of the heater together are not shown, I forgot to install the screws before I took the picture. The heater is complete with all screws.
