Default Fresh air vents above footboxes - queery

Hi,

Have only posted a few times here, so I hope i put this up in the right place.

I have some originality questions, hoping folk here can help:

On the original S/C cars, did they have 2, 1 or no freshair foot vents mounted above the footwells?

Do the modern CSX cars have these (I'm guessing yes)?

If present, where did the vent tubing terminate? I beleive the front side vents on the S/C cars were for brake ventilation, but used for footbox ventilation on road-going cars?

I have some pics of a geniune 60s CSX rebuild, and i think i can see evidence of a foot vent part-broken on the drivers side. Looks like nothing on the passenger side, but maybe wrong.


confused ,

Kevin
