Through dash ac setups on Knee Knocker cab - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Just gathering ideas at moment and the AC has me stumped on how I want to run it so I thought I would turn to the guys and gals here and see what setups you have done.

My truck is a 63 GMC so I know my dash is bit different than others but would like to see any setups you may have for 60-63 trucks.

I'm really leaning towards going straight through the dash with some sort of round vent similar to my 69 chevelle "astro ventilation" setup but the dash layout makes it basically impossible for a symmetrical install.

I would like this too. I hate to have the add-on look of the below dash vents

If you install the 64 through 66 Dash Jim and I could fix you up lolMaybe you could use the Side vent that Jim sales

Go original Cool Pack or Frigidaire setup.

I also didn't care for the plastic after market look of the under dash vents that came with the Vintage Air system on my truck. I got chrome under dash vents from a 64? Chrysler New Yorker at the local self service wrecking yard. Still under dash vents but real chrome metal and fully adjustable for left & right and tilt up & down.
