A fellow Vair nut back in the 60's use to do that (remove cowel vent and fill 
with ice) for longer summer trips.     

Never tried it myself but he said it worked great.

I thought about putting ice in the front cowl area so you would get cold air 
blowing in the floor vents, but in the humid air of Tidewater, Virginia, that 
wouldn't be much help.  So my next thought was to fill the cowl with dry ice, 
but I worry that it might freeze the brake lines.  Any thoughts?
