I would guess that would have had vacuum powered wipers. And the heat comes from the engine - was the blower motor really struggling that bad with the headlights on? I don't mean to sound skeptical, but this is really surprising to me!
Vacuum wipers in 1989? 59 maybe. Sounds like the alternator output was too weak to keep up with the electrical demand of headlights, blower, and wipers.
I would also like to autopsy this car.
I have no idea. He was also like, the third owner, so it's quite possible that things were failing.
