What car had functional vents or louvers? I can make them work. I know of Datsun 280zx. A naca duct would be cool but I can't imagine anything sitting in a junkyard having one...

And before some 'tard gives me the "have you tried google?" Yes. I have. If you google cars with "factory vents" you get a million pages of sites selling E36 M3ty, overpriced louvers.

I'm confused. Your looking for a functional NACA duct for air to the engine intake correct? Or for cooling, or air to the cabin?

Maybe you should take a trip to an airplane junk yard.

Costs more than junkyard, but if you can't find them anywhere else,

NACA inlets

Racer Parts Wholesale has NACA ducts and other aero bits. I'd be surprised if Pegasus Racing didn't have them too.

Third gen T/As had both hood vents and fender air extractors that were open to the inside, not sure how well they really worked but you could see the heat escaping from them. Not a NACA duct but if your looking for something that could possibly be made to work take a look at those.

Most cars in a junkyard should have HVAC vents and ducts. And they are not just for show.

Maybe you could use something like that?
