The heat houser was a popular item here in the fifties, sixties, even 
later. My dad had one on the Cockshutt 50 for winter use and sometimes 
right through spring seeding. I know we had days this spring when I said 
to myself I would hate to be sitting on an open tractor for hours. I 
still have a couple of them. One for the 40 and one for the 50 but I 
have not installed them in a few years.
