Title: Series One Post by: mikeC on 20 September, 2017, 04:58:10 PM When I bought my Appia a couple of years ago, it came with no heater, and no indication that one had ever been fitted. However with its third UK winter coming up I was not looking forward to more chilly trips - the cockpit seems very well insulated from the engine!
I had looked at sourcing a suitable heater and established that the Clayton unit was still available, but would need some modifications to fit, and it wasn't exactly cheap. So I was very pleased to locate and buy an original new-old-stock Appia heater from Italy - after lengthy negotiations it wasn't any cheaper than the Clayton unit, but at least it should fit straight in: (https://s20.postimg.org/eihtmktsd/P1060664.jpg) (https://s20.postimg.org/6zyody2fh/P1060661.jpg) (https://s20.postimg.org/4jwv03kct/P1060663.jpg) The parcel arrived this morning, and I was interested to see that although it is a Carello unit, it is in fact a Smiths unit made under licence! So if anyone else is looking for one, or parts for one, it might be worth investigating parts for Riley RM and Jowett Javelin ... and no doubt other UK cars of the period!

Title: Re: Series One Post by: mikeC on 21 September, 2017, 02:10:14 PM Thanks, Jim - that gives me a warm glow even before I've installed the heater! I thought mine was expensive at less than half that price :)
Title: Re: Series One Post by: chriswgawne on 21 September, 2017, 05:13:33 PM I have a couple of unrestored but good Aurelia ones in the UK for £100 each + p&p if anyone is interested..
Chris Title: Re: Series One Post by: LANCIA on 21 September, 2017, 07:16:02 PM Il pezzo giusto è quello di Classic Lancia . E' per una serie 1 guida destra. Quello acquistato da Mikec veniva montato anche su jeep.
Title: Re: Series One Post by: LANCIA on 02 October, 2017, 05:08:11 PM Il riscaldatore di sinistra è corretto per Appia serie 1 guida destra , il riscaldatore di destra è per aurelia b12 guida sinistra, nota il maggiore spessore .
