Motorala combustion heater
I scored a NOS one a few years ago, and it was missing the fuel pump. I haven't tried it yet as I would need to find a fuel pump that would work with it.
I know the South Wind was common as dirt, but this Motorola is one of two that I have seen. It will work with the engine off (something a South Wind can't) and looks very well made. It must have been a very expensive heater in its day. Mine has three temp settings, but have seen later controls for them where you set the desired temp like a house thermostat.
Here is another;

It is missing the control and pump.
