Some of the cars were equiped with dual heaters, one per side. If coolant line coming of the rear of the engine has a t splitting it to two hoses one going to each side, that's likely what you have. The outlet is usually a vent in the door end of the kick panel of the foot well. Check Normscoupe on the members list. He has a link to his site with some fairly good pics of a similar system in a Plymouth.

Are you parting out the Chrysler? I'm actually looking for some parts off a dual heater

[p15estep]

i am parting out the chrysler. just got into the interior dash area

[claybill]

there was also a special option. on the side ...by the drivers knees and pass knees were large vents that aimed lots of the air toward the back seat.

If that Chrysler being parted is a C-39 or C-40 straight-eight, I'm looking for a hood and front fenders...

Thanks,
