Clayton Heater
Right. rare as in the unit being available stateside and available now vs. having one shipped from Clayton in the UK and paying for international shipment, rare (which is what the ad says). When these were ordered originally, they arrived a little over two months after payment.
They are indeed nice heaters and well worth the auction price for someone needing one.

Since they are readily available in a reasonable amount of time, I'll stand by my original statement. Not a rarity for the resourceful willing to spend a few minutes on the net. In fact there is a vendor with several in stock in the Pacific Northwest - land-roverco.com.
So why try to mislead enthusiasts with false claims? They are not rare and can be easily had. No need to embellish the truth to make a buck. Sell it as being across the pond here as a convenience. Not as a rarity.

How much are they running? I was looking to free up a little room under the hood on my Series III. They look a little more robust than the commonly available aftermarket units, and will likely heat a little better- a nice feature up here.Comment

Looking around 350 converted from GPB. As of 2 1/2 weeks ago...
Don't know what Charles is asking for them. I spoke with him over the summer and he mentioned he had them in stock.
If you guys are interested I can call Holdens or another UK vendor tomorrow and ask if they will discount a larger order. . .Comment

Hope we have'nt hijacked the thread here- but I would be interested in getting one of the aforementioned, before the snows start here in New England...Comment

Are you guys just nostalgic for these or doing 100 point restorations? There are tons of better heaters out there for less $... I could see using one of these as an auxillary/rear heater in a 109 I guess but for the front I'd prefer a more modern design. If someone reproduced the Kodiak with a better distribution box then you'd really have something.Comment

As a matter of interest, how does a Kodiak differ from the heater on a late IIA? I've never really taken the time to research Kodiaks as I live in the fiery armpit of the country.Comment

This thread mostly stemmed from my first introduction to the Clayton. Have never seen nor heard of one. Most folks give high praise to the Kodiak, mixed reviews for the smiths, and never mention the clayton. Has been an interesting conversation though. Am I interested in buying and replacing my existing system, no.Comment

Yorker- what would you suggest? The reason I liked the design was the small footprint and capability for defroster ducts. Most aftermarket heaters I've seen are pretty weak for anything below 40F (which is a concern for me).Comment
