Fwiw, my Spit was quite the hot box, cooking the feet and other extremities
nicely. No carpeting, no insulation on the tranny tunnel. So I finally spent
some time sealing things up. As in caulking around the tranny cover (big
gaps at the front), installing the door seals (lots of warm air comes in through
that gap), and putting the boots on the pedal linkages and such. Tremendous
difference. I still don't have insulation or carpeting, but the car is now
comfortable in summer time weather conditions. Well, as comfortable as
a non air conditioned car can be that is. :-)
So, my advise, seal up the passenger compartment.

But is there anything else that gets heated
up - like near your feet? My feet get very hot - im not sure if this
is just the engine or what. Im pretty sure it shouldnt be getting
that hot.
