Auto Fan? No idea !
There is a 2 Speed Fan Motor in all Climitizer Heating/Defrost Systems, that's all.
They can be used to move fresh Cool air also.
In addition to that, there are left and right Ram-Air fresh air vents from the Cowl, Grille or fender doors depending on model/year. Plenty enough COOL for any 80 Degree day, hotter than that well, you're on your own!Last edited by StudeRich; 06-18-2010, 11:50 PM.StudeRich

Indeed they did. It was an option back in the mid 30's. In fact the fan had the Studebaker name in the center. This was
intended for use as a defroster. I have photos and AC number if needed.Richard Quinn

I'm sure there were several after-market suppliers that made them. I've seen electric as well as vacuum operated, and most had rubber blades with no guard. Sounds wierd but they worked quite well.

I know there are after market units that I could get,just didin't know if Studebaker ever produced one.My car didn't come with a/c.With the air vents open its great,until you stop then its not so great.Don't have the funds to put in a/c right now(not really even sure I want to go to the trouble) but I do have them to buy a fan
Just gotta figure out where to put it.

One of our local chapter members has one mounted in a 51' Starlite Coupe, just under the edge of the dash on the passenger side, close to the door. It moves a good amount of air...either hot, or cold.
