My parents bought a new '69 Westfalia in Germany drove it around for 3
months, then shipped it back to the SF bay area. I  drove it more than them
in '69-'70( still in high school-- before I went off to college in fall of
'70)  I used that gas heater a lot ! for quick van interior warm ups and
especially snow camping in Yosemite and ski trips to the Sierras. ( miss
that gas heater in the Vanagon)    Lloyd in Eureka, CA.--- Original
