    I need to figure out a way to get some air movement in my 51 Chevy when I am sitting at a light. I figure some sort of blower motor and a couple ducts.

    What have you guys used or seen that gets the job done without breaking the bank? Heat/cool isnt really necessary, just some air movement to take the edge off the heat...

    Not sure why you are having heating problems, I have a friend with a 52 with a 572crate motor that doesn't have an problems.
    Do you have headers, do you have airconditioning, and are you running a stock type fan or electric?
    How about some pictures.

    I thought he was talking about inside the car, not under the hood. He didn't make it very clear did he?

    You're on a hotrod site, you start a topic called Blower Motor Ideas and you expect us to think about a stupid fan in the car... Just crank open a window for whatevers sake will ya? :rolleyes: ;)
    Man, I had such high hopes when I clicked this topic... all down the drain now... :D

    But, to somewhat answer your question;
    You could take different routes to minimise the trafficlight stops... ;)

    It probably does not get as hot in the Netherlands as it does in southwest USA....

    You can leave out "probably' for sure there. ;)
    Winter in Phoenix is just about the same as Summer in Holland.

    I would consider prowling around some RV shops for the 12v fans. Or if you are lucky, check auction sites for something a bit more period correct. Unfortunately even a fan this next week isn't gonna do a whole lot trapped on the 10 in the afternoon.

    But if you go that route, I would try to find a way to direct wire it, instead of eating up the cigarette lighter. Ooops, we aren't allowed to smoke in Cali anymore, Cell phone charger outlet...
