<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sam_I_am.MiaFLUSA, post: 3132021, member: 84102&quot;]Not only do I remember what was a dealer aftermarket add-on, my first auto when I got married was a brand new 1971 Buick Opel 1900 Wagon to which we added a so-called &quot;factory a/c&quot;.&nbsp; That meant it was a factory approved add-on that wouldn&#039;t void the warranty. We took that car with us to Grand Bahama, where it was our better/fancy vehicle. </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; A year later we brought over a 2nd auto, a 1969 Citroen Mehari which couldn&#039;t handle an a/c, especially since it was a two-cylinder cycolac-plastic body vehicle with stick shift coming out of the dashboard!&nbsp; A truly fun car for island living but a p.i.t.a. for servicing &amp; obtaining parts.</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; And regarding before automobile heaters were standard, in addition to a 1915 Junior Klaxxonet horn which I have for sale, I also have an early 20th century portable auto brick-coal &amp; kerosene foot-warmer <i>(also for sale).</i> Why does <b><i>Sam_I_am</i></b> have this weird stuff? Because Sidney at one-time collected antique autos, e.g., a 1918 Franklin, a 1917 Franklin, a 1911 White 7-Passenger Gasoline Touring Car and a 1910 Hupmobile <i>(not all at one time!)</i>. Truly feels like a different lifetime ago.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
