Heater and Heater Controls – Tempest, Tempest Custom, Le Mans, Tempest Safari and GTO. All-new in shape and size, with larger heater case and larger heater outlets.

The fully illuminated, vertically mounted control panel features a sliding temperature-control lever at left and an air-flow-control lever at right. The 4-position “on-off” switch is mounted between the two levers at the base of the panel.

The centrally located heater controls, radio provision and ashtray are mounted in a burl wood grained appearance trim plate framed by a bright metal molding. The heater utilizes three horizontal sliding control levers. The top lever controls air flow and blower motor, the middle lever regulates temperature, and the lower lever directs air flow through the defroster outlets.
