hello
i need the dual action vacuum control valve that mounts on the heater case that controls a vent door on the heater case and also an arm that activates a kill switch for the ac compressor on my 68
could anyone help me on this part?
Classic Auto Air said they could not recondition this one

hello blue,thanks
that to me looks like the ac vacuum control control valve that mounts on the headset beside the thumbwheel.
you have what looks to me like probably the most awesome 68 convertible i've seen.
I'm glad you wrote check this out,my car is an April 68 car,and i could't find this part as a 68 part anywhere(new aftermarket,nos or used) so i looked it up under 69.Eckler's has this AC Delco part #40120 that looked just like it so i ordered it,it should be here monday.
Do you think 69 parts were showing up on the line April 68? I wonder if a previous owner modified the system.I don't where all this car has been,i bought it beside the road,it was in bad shape but the #'s match.She's almost totaly rebuilt now. thanks,Kevin
