Are you looking for a complete vent assembly, or just a lid?

I'm pretty sure the cowl vent assemblies all interchange 48-52....
They are not reproduced to my knowledge, but shouldn't be too hard to find.
I just sold my last good lid a couple of days ago....

Here's one minus the lid on ebay. I'd ask questions before bidding considering they only included one picture.

I also have one complete and one without the lid. I sent you an email yesterday.

Between a few of us, you should be able to find one.

In addition to lids and complete assemblies, I also have a chunk of the body cowl available that the mechanism fits into if yours is rusted or has been removed by a previous hot rodder.

I guess there's more supply than demand for this part. Should be good for the buyer in terms of obtaining a competitive price. It's now a reverse auction.

Welcome To FTE, Im not sure you have your user setting set up to accept emails from users or send/recieve PM's until after you get 25 posts.
so I can't easily contact you off the board. if you want to send me an email at j f madsen at yahoo dot com we can go from there.

Thanks
Josh
