![]() ![]() I'm pretty sure I'm going back with springmist green and white.Īgain any help with the fender vent box is is appreciated. It was colonial white, a previous owner had everything, and I mean everything painted red, and the paint is terrible full of bad bodywork and pinholes.Īll that is going including stripping and refinishing or replacing the parts that should not be painted red. The box nail was holding the shift linkage together, and gravity was holding the box nail in. Many other parts missing / broken or replaced with items made from box nails and coat hangers. At least I have the fan! Likewise the heater core was shot so that needs replacing. Note the lack of a hole in the right fender for the blower fan fresh air inlet. I've attached a couple of pics of where I am so far. If someone can snap a picture of that setup and post it that would be very helpful. I'm imagining a bell crank to open the vent door, and a spring to help pull it closed, but that is pure speculation as I have never seen any of it. There are two posts welded inside the box that have something to do with opening and closing the vent door. In any event, the plan is to repair and replace everything that needs it either stock, or with modification as required, but I could use some help if folks out there have experience and information to share.Ĭlick to expand.Yes, behind the vent door on the fender there is a box that leads from the exterior vent door to the car interior where the big chrome grate is in the foot well. I'll be asking all finds of questions as at this point I have the engine and transmission out (looks like a 292 mated to a Fordomatic) so this is definetly not a show car. Anyone out there have pictures or a description of what goes on the two posts in the fender vent boxes? Whoever was working on this last replaced the inner fender wells and deleted all of the fresh air inlets into the car including the round duct as well as the square hole for the fender cowl vent. ![]() I managed to get replacement cowl vent boxes, but I don't know how the fender vent doors are connected to the cables in the dashboard. Well for better or worse (mainly worse), it's mine, and as I was looking for a project I certainly got my moneys worth.Īll of the fresh air vents are missing as are the fender cowl vent boxes. I did find a New Hampsire News March 15th 1964 newspaper jammed tightly between the trunk hinge and the quarter panel with the headline declaring, "Ruby Must Die In Chair!", so that was interesting. Much of the work looks like it was done by a 15 year old, so I'm going through it end to end. It was apparently half way through a poor restoration effort and pretty much has the market cornered on items that need to be replaced or repaired or are just plain missing. ![]() ![]() This increases the total efficiency of the A/C System by making the vehicle interior cooler much faster than other systems on the market.I bought a 1957 that I probably should not have.
