65 Mustang Falcon Galaxie Fresh Air Vent Baffle Diffuser

This is a reproduction designed from scratch using dimensions from a Ford original floor fresh air vent baffle, specifically for a 1965 Ford Mustang. The part number is C4AB6201820A. I have never found any reproduction for this part, and originals are typically hard to find or already broken. An original Ford part was graciously donated from a Vintage Mustang forum member for this project, and without him it would not have been possible. Thanks 66! This was created to remedy having to purchase the entire fresh air tube system ($150+) to obtain this baffle. This is the final functional version, however, there are small cosmetic tweaks that may be applied in future updates for more concours appearance (Ford logo, part number embossing, etc). The picture of the print is my first printed draft with incorrect vane angles; that has been corrected in the current file. Using PLA at $13 a kilo, this costs exactly $1 to print. Enjoy, feel free to remix, improve, share, and utilize for yourself. Print Settings Printer Brand: ELEGOO Printer: ELEGOO NEPTUNE 3 Pro Rafts: No Supports: Yes Resolution: .16 Infill: 20%+ Filament: Creality PLA+ Black Notes: Organic supports with 0.6 tip size works well and is easier to remove. Auto-generated organic supports within Prusaslicer while printing vent side down reduces material and works well, but will generate a textured appearance on the vanes if using a textured PEI sheet. Minor filing may be required near screw holes, as some tubes I found are not perfectly round. Category: Automotive
