Now that the cold weather has hit (and a ton of "lake effect" snow has dropped in northwest PA) I'm reminded of a contraption we had on my dad's Farmall M back in Minnesota in my boyhood days. It was not a cab, but something that I remember being called something like a "heat houser" or "heat housing" or something like that. (Hey, I was a kid and didn't always pay attention like I should have done). It was a heavy, canvas or tarp kind of "windshield" attached somehow around in front of the steering wheel as kind of a protective shield that kept off some of the wind and, I assume, trapped some of the heat from the tractor to keep the driver a little bit warmer (or, at least, give the impression of being a little warmer). Minnesota has many sub-zero days. I'm not trying to buy or build one of these, just having a pleasant childhood memory brought on by the onset of winter. Does anybody remember what I'm talking about, used to have one of these, or perhaps still uses one?
