<VV> [SCG] '62 with gasoline heater (P.S.)

[wblanning at comcast.net]

I have a 62 Monza wagon with the forced air heater (not the gas heater) that has the insulation mat on the bottom of the trunk lid.  It is not painted and still has remains of the jacking instructions.  I also have two other parts wagons (a 61 700 & a 62 700) with the regular heater and they also have the insulation mat.  I have seen 63's & 64's without the mat, so I presume the mat was standard through 62.

I neglected to mention that the '62 with a gasoline heater also had a trunk 
 lid with the thin insulation/padding in it as seen on '60s.  It was 
painted  the same body color.  Is the padding there because of the optional 
gasoline  heater?  Should the padding be painted the same Roman Red body color?

<I looked at a '62 Monza coupe today which had a gasoline heater.   I  
noticed that there was a horn inside the trunk mounted on the  driver's 
side  where 
the jack normally would be.  The jack was  there but kind of angled  more 
inward.  Also, the bottle for the  anti-freeze solution for the  optional 
2-speed windshield wiper with  washer was mounted there.  Is this  
placement of a 
horn, the  washer solution bottle and the angling of the jack stock when a 
'62 was  equipped from the factory with a gasoline heater?

Thanks!
