Desperately need 69-72 Chevelle cowl vent cans

**SS427** · #1 08-04-2017, 07:19 PM

Desperately need both left and right interior cowl vent housings as pictured for a 69-72 Chevelle. I need the round 'can' as you see in the photos as seen on the top of photo 1 and bottom of photo 2 . You can rough cut around it as I will trim upon receipt. 'Will require using a plazma cutter or accetalene torch but will pay accordingly. Vent doors can be an added bonus but not required. I am building a RestoMod for a customer and it was an A/C converted to a non A/C car. Please contact me as soon as possible if you can help. ricknelson427 @ hotmail.com

for a resto mod, id find a heating and cooling shop or sheet metal and have them roll ya up a pair..prob cost nearly nothing..take a pic and they will fix ya up..ive done it and it was cheap...i measured across and they did the math and they where perfect..i used a roto zip for the slots...worked well..

id prob look for cuts on a concours resto, but since its a hot rod..whats the diff?

just an idea..

i have 3 shells sitting here right now..if you must have OEM..i will look here in a few and let ya know..its raining like pouring piss out of a boot...i happen to have a plasma cutter, i havent used in a few years..and was thinking about firing it up this weekend..

i dont even know where theres a shell sitting, but, ill call around today..i have friends with junk sitting around...

oh wait..i do know where a 68 4 door is...i'll have to check monday..its in a junk yard, ive been wanting to buy the whole car anyway..they close at noon and i cant get there in time.

I would think since it is a modified car you could easily just make your own can. Looks pretty basic.

Many people responded and I have located the cans for far less than I could reproduce them in time and material. The cans are not the issue but cutting the slots for the vent arm would take more time than I have available versus buying original ones. Thanks for everyone's help.
