Title: 69 Camaro Astro Vents
Post by: bruce69camaro on November 19, 2008, 12:28:53 PM
A guy I know needs a pair of the astro vents for a 69 Camaro and said they are not available on the market. I have a set from my 69 because I gutted it for racing.
The question is, how much are these vents worth? You can buy units for a 68 and they cost around $40.00 each. The original pair I have is in good shape except for the small flapper gaskets has a tear in it and they can be replaced.
Do you think $15.00 each is a good price?

Thank you
Bruce

69 astro vents are still readily available in both repro and NOS.  Probably around $38.00 for one NOS vent.   If yours are in good shape and still have good chrome then $15.00 is fair

Maybe I should reword this, 69 astro vent elbow with shut-off valve.

Here is the link to a 68 unit: http://www.rickscamaros.com/product.asp?pf_id=IN-114&dept_id=3361

Sorry, I misunderstood the part.  But, yea I think 15.00 ea is a fair price for an original part that needs a little work.
