Are you saying that there is supposed to be some kind of outside air vent on the AC cars similar to that in the non-AC cars?
Here's the thing, on the 'Cuda, I remember it getting very hot in the car while driving, and there was no way to enable outside air circulation, only what seemed to be recirculating inside air. (I should add, this was the case, even when I disconnected the heater hoses) In contrast, my '70 Swinger with no AC had little trap doors that you could open up, and cool outside air would flow in while you were driving, it would actually blow on you without the fan on, and with the heater control turned to off.
I think the non-AC E-bodies had a similar system, but it used two knobs that opened up some kind of flaps, that would accomplish the same thing as the A-body trap doors. With the AC, there never seemed to be any outside air flow, on or off.
Maybe I need to switch the under-dash heater box to a non-AC variety?
