Air conditioning dash duct

Hello.

I am looking for the the flexible duct that goes to the far left air vent on a factory a/c truck.

I know it is not reproduced. My truck is only a driver so anything will work. Could I get 4" inch or 6"inch wide round duct and make it work? If so where can I buy it?

I just want my a/c to blow out of all my vents.

Thanks

Duct fix

I have the same problem with my 1973 F100. I took the duct out and I am trying to repair it with "Loctite Vinyl, Fabric & Plastic" adhesive. I have to do a little at a time as my duct is in bad shape but it does seem to fixing the torn part. I got it, the Loctite, at Home Depot in the paint section. Good luck and if you have a better way please let me know.

I eventually found a dash tube vent in the salvage yard out of a 79 f150. Works better than anything else.

I have a few different years of these trucks. I have found that my 78's have a hard plastic duct that is obviously more durable then the flex ducts on earlier models. But with that said, I have had good luck finding the felx ducts in junk yards lately.
