Besides missing all the dash controls, my heater ducting is missing a little "cover" that exposes the "air control" damper. The shop manual picture makes this little part look more complicated than a simple cover - it's shaped like a nose and has a couple of forks that might (?) be activated by the damper. Anyone have a complete unit that can describe what this doo-hickey does that a piece of duct tape wouldn't do?

It's shown in the '66 Shop supplement, Section 13, Fig 1, extreme right side above words "air inlet".

You lost me at'Nose and a couple of forks'.
Is this part inside or outside the cab? and can you post a pic?

Jim, I don't know if that cover has any function other than cover the hole. Its the only thing missing off my otherwise functioning unit and I just covered it with duct tape. What ever that cover might have done, using duct tape didn't stop the heater from getting things toasty the other day when it was 13 degrees out.
