Hey Jim. I know that quality is not a fast process. I know I'm okay waiting. Did you get my message from eBay about putting me on the list?

Jim, Do you have two original OEM GM vent balls that have been rechromed in stock? I have my pair to trade or to send in to have rechromed just want them done nicely for the faceplate I got from you. Thanks, Mark

I have really good news. one of my customers has made the ductwork to fit the faceplates I make. he said you can hook up any aftermarket A/C to it. this is going to be awesome for all of us:metal:

That looks simple enough!

Re: 1964-1966 center a/c vent
 
its very solid and took me about an hour. I just bought a sand blaster today so the next step is to sand blast the dash and paint then mount it on the wall in my A/C vent production wall

Re: 1964-1966 center a/c vent
 
I did some calling on converting a non A/C truck (like mine) to factory look air.

Vintage Air 4 with the Deluxe heater conversion is part # 941164 $1,395.00
the brackets for the 230 strait 6 is part #146036 (comes with)
if you want to run electric fan like I do the radiator is $279 the fan $170 and the shroud $150.
trinary switch is $35 extra

the Vintage air 4 has 4 outlet hoses at 2 1/2 in and 2 defrost hoses at 2in.
so this will work well for those of us that want that factory look with the center vents and the side vents that I make and the air box that NSB29 makes.

I cant wait till I do mine

Re: 1964-1966 center a/c vent
 
Man, I'm chomping at the bit for this! Hopefully, there's at least 4 sets so I can be one of the lucky ones to get this.

corvettejim1968 07-11-2015 08:44 AM

Re: 1964-1966 center a/c vent
 
parts should be here any day now. I will start private messaging starting at #1 on the list and go from there. I know some members are not on here all the time so I will give a couple days to respond and move to the next in line. don't worry you will still hold your place you just might have to wait a little longer. I have quite a list with people that cant wait to have their A/C vents. you have all be great waiting for this. thank you all

corvettejim1968 07-11-2015 01:12 PM

Re: 1964-1966 center a/c vent
 
I have been doing a lot of thinking and I really want to get these parts out to you guys in a more timely manner. I can do that if I send them out raw and not chromed. The new price for the whole center assembly would be $225. Then you can send out your vents for Chrome or you can paint them whichever you decide.

corvettejim1968 07-13-2015 08:40 PM

Re: 1964-1966 center a/c vent
 
i have some chromed vent balls and center vents that i consider 2nd`s . i will sell them at half price at $25 each. PM if interested qty is limited.

ms2335 07-14-2015 03:59 PM

Re: 1964-1966 center a/c vent
 
I will take two vent balls and center vent.

corvettejim1968 07-15-2015 09:08 PM

Re: 1964-1966 center a/c vent
 
I have PMed alot of people from the list many with no response. so be hopeful I might get to you sooner than you think.
