My S/W Town Sedan was driven by the previous owner and his family in the Chicago area for many years. He installed a hot water heater inside the car on the passenger side. He had a thermostat in the upper hose. He also installed a small 12 volt electric pump to push the hot water through the heater core. I guess the car's water pump was not enough for him.
I took it out in Texas because we did not need the heat.

The thermostat is in the upper hose by the radiator neck. The water inlet has a special pick up to help direct water into the heater. There seems to be plenty of water circulating through the heater because it gets hot right away and seem to stay hot as I am driving. It was in the upper 30s this morning and heat started coming out after about a half mile and the car warmed up nicely, even with the fan running at the lowest speed on my way to work.
