69 B Body with AC (Super Bee). Anyone make replacement parts or use something flexible for this? I can repair but prefer to replace the fabric etc if possible. I also need or will have to fabricate the j bolts that hold it to the cowling.
How have you repaired or replaced the flex duct?

I went down to the local parts store and got some black vinyl wrap. Used the black vinyl and a heat gun to fix it up. Worked pretty good for my 65 dart.
Yes I will likely try something similar.
I haven’t seen these reproduced, find a good used one. To repair yours, I might look at some of the Flex Seal products. I know, the commercials are goofy, but they have various types of sealing tape. There is a big display at the local Menards.

Do you happen to have any phtos of how this is connected at the cowl? mine is in pieces and i have no idea what i need to re-connect it. thanks muah
I haven’t completed mine yet. My duct was full of tiny holes so I found some flex duct online to replace it. Gonna have to do some manipulation on the square end.
This connects to the cowling with “j” bolts. No one makes them, but I purchased a set of battery hold down j bolts that I will have to shorten and possibly re-thread. I’ll try to get a pic when I go back to my shop.
Here is what someone on FB posted as to the correct size.

Will have to be shortened considerably but the hook hopes inside and over the cowling. These are battery hold downs purchased on Amazon.
Another pic oriented the correct way.

These came off a 67 b body. Look similar to the diagram above.
Don't have a pic but i think the j's hook over the inside edge of the cowl opening?? and the threaded ends go through the holes in the oval part of the flex duct.

That's it. Good pic showing original Unfortunately I am not aware of anyone making these so if missing have to fabricate on your own
