My '49 3800 doesn't have the correct defroster outlets so yesterday I was removing some correctly sized ones from a parts 3100.

Some previous owner had used a household vacuum cleaner hose as ducting. So I guess I would have to say a vacuum cleaner hose from some mom's sweeper.

"Son, go ask your dad if he knows where my sweeper hose is?"

"Dad, do you know where mom's vacuum cleaner hose is?"

"Uh why would you ask me son?" "I don't see it laying around the shop."

Later in the day---Ma says, "Pa, the windshield isn't fogging up. How'd you get the defroster fixed?"

Pa, "Oh with a few parts I found just laying around the house."

Even the end of the hose was intact, just taped inside of the outlet. The guy did forget to clean out the hose before using it as some household dirt/trash was stuck in the defrost outlet.


Word hard, play harder, enjoy life!
