[SCG] AC Condenser Cover

[Bill Hubbell]

Yes, that is a 1965 on E-Bay.  The reason for the cardboard cover on the
1965 is because the air intake is in front of the engine, and they wanted to
insure that all the fresh air would go through the condenser.  The 1961-64
cars did not have cardboard covers because the air intake came through the
deck lids.

Of course, if anybody can find an actual 1961-64 cardboard cover to prove me
wrong......

I thought only the 65 had the cardboard cover. The early models sucked 
air straight down through the engine lid.

But what do I remember?
