Re: What is the purpose of the cowl vent?

On really early cars it was just a way to get fresh air in so you have a breeze,This was long before having heat or ac.Later it got used for fresh air for the heat and air like said,If you go with a vintage air unit those reuse the inside air so you could shave the cowl aka weld it shut.
