[BobD]

Lets try this again. This is "silver shelby's" old car. GLHS#654

[Shelby Donk]

Here are my 2. The one in the first 2 pics on the trailer I drove to NH for about 1 month ago. That is #581 she needs work but is complete!

The one in the garage has alot of work into her, most recent being the SLH3 brakes, and all the rear supension, crossmember etc, getting powdercoated, new ss brakelines, new hoses, all new e-brake cables both rears, and front (hard to find someone who can look these up correctly). Went to NAPA website looked the up myself ordered and they were correct, after other "parts" people ordered me numeruos wrong parts. Anyway, goal is 400whp by springtime. This car came from GA, #582 (yes they are consecutive #'ed cars aren't I LUCKY

[83sdc]

anyone else on here own a 83&1/2 s/c? or a "L" body that has factory consol a/c vents?

[vntned]

My brother in law has an '83 1/2 SC with factory no A/C. I also have a parts Omni with factory no A/C.

Why?

[turbomini]

I'm with ^ why? you need parts?

[83sdc]

my 83&1/2 has the console a/c vents in place, but the factory did not put all the ducting in it. at one time i had family that work at the plant building these cars. i asked him about the parts and he told me that there was a problem with production of some of the peices back then. i have only seen 2 83&1/2's that had all the parts installed. since mine was supposed to have it, i would like to put it all in there now that i'm finally get'n to "restore" her . if you have not seen this set up before, there is a 85 glh-t on ebay right now that has the setup. item # 300261670550. i have never seen a 84 up s/c with this set-up and the e-bay glh-t is the only omni i have ever seen with it.

[rare_ram]

I didn't think there was any ducting. Just open the floor vent and the air came out those vents.

[83sdc]

there was in fact some cars built with the ducting to the console. but they are few and far between.

[silver shelby]

those kind of chargers were without a/c

[turbomini]

i'm with ^ i've seen alot of them and i've enver seen one with it but thats not saying they didnt make it.
