Default need help finding a part

I have tried all the places I can think of for this part which is the fresh air duct that connects to the duct with the valve just in back of the chrome ball on the dash. My car is a '69 vert W/O air. I have found them for cars the same as mine W/air but none W/O air Please help...
I bet if I learned how to post a proper size pic I would get more response...Oh well I'll keep my fingers crossed and my eyes and ears open...

I hunted and hunted for this piece for mine also. I just kept asking and finally got a set from some one. One was pretty beat up but the other one was very useable. You could also try calling Gary Gruhala. He has a pretty good reputation on here as a used part supplier.

That one doesn't look too bad.
This is an air duct.
Here is the only chance to use duct tape in your vette ...
and use it for it's intended purpose (non-Bubba).
Use the black stuff and you'd never notice.

Looks like the rodents chewed the edge of yours. Mine was the same ... found acorn shells inside.
