At the video 4:00 minute mark I see this 1971 Hemi Road Runner interior shows three vents above the glove box in the wood grain section. I thought I just read the strato-vent system only used two vents? A/C vehicles had three vents right? Well, a Hemi with air grabber hood could not be ordered with factory air, although an aftermarket unit could be adapted.

Then between the vents is the road runner logo, but isn't the road roadrunner image of the face/head missing? I thought these discrepancies might warrant a short discussion.

you are correct
strato vent used only the 2 center vents.
it also used a specific heater box,water valve and controller.

most of these year cars are a mismatch of parts
especially 71's that had many one year only parts
because most people sell stuff as 71-4
and the confusion starts there..
 
Two vents should be toward the center.
 
yeah, the pic is upside down
 
Has the a/c vent on the dash insert, but no a/c under the hood. Hmm?
