ID my parts please

[ixnay]

When I bought this rig with a bed full of parts, these three sheet metal pieces were included. PO was working on rebuilding the heater box, so I surmised these had to do with vents/heat & ducting.

Red oxide sheet metal: I have no idea. Square edges aren't too common in my experience

Silver sheet metal: screens for floor vents? Placed in between the firewall and fenders/side panels?

Thanks,

MJH

I pulled 2 of the square vents from a 61 deluxe pickup last summer. they covered the kickpanal vents

The two oval items are the directional air flow covers for the cab interior fresh air vents ( operated by a push-pull lever on driver and passenger side cab ), the vents are located at the kick panels. The square item is for the heater box...I believe it is for the flap inside the box to let in hot air / block off hot air from the heater core depending on lever position.

My 57 has those oval ones, I have never seen the same ones on a 67-72

Thanks. The PO was also restoring a 57 Apache when he went to his eternal reward. His widow threw in all sorts of stuff when I bought my 68 C10--manual, heater core, etc. I'll bet the ovals were part of the other build.
