Re: 56 Cameo

Little things,, Motor should be here on tues. Rims come in tomorrow,, Vintage Air sometime in a week or so.. Moving the battery to the frame,, have the Passenger Side floor pan for an AD to go in for access,, Lot of interior work to be done... Would love to know what some of you are using for dash vents??

Re: 56 Cameo

another cameo build, very cool

ac vents:
i added a fascia to the bottom of my dash to put one ac vent in.


pass side is in the kick, fascia hides the va unit


and one more eyeball vent hidden under the dash on the drivers side
layout seems to work well. 104*f on 4 days of the power tour, we never sweated a drop

I see you are checking the console for proper function. Good job!
