Re: 1964-1966 center a/c vent
I had some setbacks with the side vents so its going to be a few months. I need to make a whole new master part and then make a mold

Re: 1964-1966 center a/c vent
Hi
Thanks for the side vent balls, so the housings i had fell apart and no amount of glue will help it!! Do you have a pair (side vent housings) for sale? 2end grade would be ok as long as they are functional. Thx |

Re: 1964-1966 center a/c vent
Jim
The new center assembly and side vents are fantastic. I am looking at picking up both but can you enlighten me on how to run extra hoses and tap into the OE factory a/c to make this work? I have not seen that on the blog anywhere. Is there a previous link/ Thanks....

I have yet to see anybody tap into an original air conditioning system to run the two extra hoses. I am confident that with some mechanical skills and some ingenuity it can be done. When I came up at the side vents I was actually intending them to work with the Vintage Air or something like that.

Re: 1964-1966 center a/c vent
just an update. im working on making some new molds. and again if anybody does not mind getting your parts in raw you can send them out yourself to have them chromed. this way you dont need to wait so long.

Re: 1964-1966 center a/c vent
still working on the smaller side vents mold. im building up the material to oversize the part because of the shrinkage issue im having. layer after layer this is a long process but in the end it will make a nicer part. Im a perfectionist i just cant help it.

Re: 1964-1966 center a/c vent
Can't wait until the side vent balls are in stock. The center vent is very nice, so I'm sure these will be quality as well. Plus, they look WAY cooler than the Vintage Air lower dash panel that is currently installed.
