    Muffman58, thanks, but no I mean those big cylinders that they mounted ussualy outside the p***enger window to take air in while driving and blow colder air inside the car..early 30's and 40's, before air was available standard on cars I guess...

    If you find pics of a bullet shaped one, post them, and if you make one, definiteley post and maybe do a tech if possible.

    You realize, of course, that in order to be period perfect you will need to have a "DESERT" bag hanging on the door handle. Bob
