Re: 1964-1966 center a/c vent
 

oh hell yeah bro... hell yeah! when I get to that stage i will cut up my dash and acquire a set of these! Wonder how that would work with a 64 farm truck that had no options.

Re: 1964-1966 center a/c vent
 

i cant see why it would not work. I have a 65 with very little options. I want to do a Vintage air IV but with factory vents and not the under dash after market vents. this is the reason I started this project to begin with. after I realized I could make the center vents and I saw some other members using after market side vents I was like "I can make those but look factory" so here I am.

Hey corvettejim1968, glad to see you have perservered through some trials and kept this going. Just checking to be sure I am on your list, looks like I sent you a request around May8, 2014. I deleted the original I sent to you, but I do have a response from you on May 8. I'll be looking for the entire package deal at $400 that you mentioned. Looking forward to a Vintage Air install in a few months. Not 100% sure how it will all hook up to this system, but will figure it out. Has anyone else figured it out that you know of?

Re: 1964-1966 center a/c vent
 

thank you and your #11 on the list. one guy that i have seen here did a Vintage air IV with the factory controls and air vents with the added side vents. his user name is brokenspoke the thread i found him on is called "Vintage A/C dash

True American Craftmanship.Something that is unfortunately dieing out. Once the younguns take over we are screwed. Take your vitamins Jim we need you!;)

Re: 1964-1966 center a/c vent

Re: 1964-1966 center a/c vent
 

Only 100? :lol:

Re: 1964-1966 center a/c vent
 

I'll echo the 'atta-boy' . . .... Glad to see you continued pushing forward.

Also, it's amazing how remaining in constant contact to communicate delays in the process helped keep those interested patient, informed, & understanding. Others would be wise to follow that format.

I didn't get on the list back then but have been watching progress & I'm still interested.

x2!!

Re: 1964-1966 center a/c vent
 

thank you all again. this has been alot harder than i anticipated but i know it will be worth it in the end. most of the problem is making a good part. alot of them have flaws and im picky. the other problem is the 5 week turnaround from the chrome guy. i wont let you down its just going to be a slower process than i want it to be thats all.

Re: 1964-1966 center a/c vent
 

look what came in the mail today. i can start shipping Friday.

Bless you Jim for your service to our country and all this amazing work! I have a 66 that I am tearing down and it has no AC, just an ashtray and a pull knob for heat. I was thinking the AC will be a future add on but you have me wondering whats the best approach now. I need to figure out what cuts to maybe make now as I am having the cab sand blasted and fixing up. I was about to give up hope on having a factory looking ac on the dash. Great to know you are on this!

Re: 1964-1966 center a/c vent
 

Jim,
I believe I am on you list, if not will you please add me? If you have any extra small side vents (pair) I would like to get them even if you don't have a complete set to ship. I am at the point in painting my cab where I would like to get them mapped out. Thanks as well for your awesome work and photos to show the process.

Re: 1964-1966 center a/c vent

Re: 1964-1966 center a/c vent
 

I already got one from you. Sell to next one on list.

Thank you.

Re: 1964-1966 center a/c vent
 

Excellent idea.

Re: 1964-1966 center a/c vent
 

if anybody wants to purchase original vent balls rechromed I can give you more money for your trade in old original vent balls. I will give 50 dollars for each original trade in vent ball for the purchase of original rechromed vent balls.
