dreamland - December 6th, 2014 at 01:49 PM

Hi
I'm after the air vent drain box for a 69 Type 3. Does anyone know if they are interchangeable with later ones or which ones fit.

Mine is rusted out so need the complete unit

Call 0403 834 038

Cheers

Is that the rounded panel that sits inside the rear wings and vents into the flaps at the bottom of the engine bay on each side?

I need these as well. I cannot find anywhere that makes them.

No. Should have been clearer. I'm looking for the none under the front cowl/ windscreen.

'69 Notch. I've seen and early 60's - no good. Seen 70's - wrong shape

Definitely need a 69 - perhaps 67 or 68. ?? I don't know as I would need to see them. Need the passenger side unit with airvent cables.

Any expert info or source greatly appreciated

Cheers

Hi

Sorry for slow reply. Bit hard to see but the rusty mess is the vent. Passenger side.

Hope this helps

Thanks

Those look more like it. The light blue one in particular.

Can you send a pic of whats under the passenger side vent please. Thats what i need. The water catcher/ drain box.set up.

Cheers

White one could be the same as well. Looks like someone has welded over the vents on the blue one. perhaps it was leaking?

Thanks

Not sure... there is a plastic box that goes under each vent - this is not what you need?


dreamland - January 5th, 2015 at 11:31 AM

Thats what I need but mine was metal so they may be different - any chance of a pic of the passenger side ones?

Thanks

Have both now - will try to put pics on...
They have rust, but certainly not half as bad as what yours are :)
