As my a/c has been taken apart (by one of the POs), I will be more than happy to hang on to the vent once summer rolls around! In the mean time, it is another item in my growing list of things to do once I start putting money into her.

1973/79 F100/350 & 1978/79 Bronco: There are TWO different types of dealer installed A/C, as well as factory installed A/C.
If the A/C controls are in the same panel as the heater controls: Factory A/C, which is combined with the heater.
DELUXE dealer installed A/C is combined with the heater. The A/C controls are located in the HUGE dash bezel that sweeps across the entire right side of the dash, covering up the original glove box.
There is a separate "hang-on" glove box, bolts to the bottom of the dash.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
ECONOMY dealer installed A/C is not combined with the heater. The two A/C switches mount into a panel that also contains two A/C registers.
This panel mounts into the dash to the left of the glove box.

I will buy the gaskets for 5$ first to see if that will make it so no air will blow in when the vent is shut. if it doesnt work then ill buy a block off. it gets -5 here so the gasket cant let any air in at all, so im betting that i will have to buy a block off, but ill see how the gasket works out first. thanks again for the help guys
