The image of the hiked up skirt reminds me of the reports that women liked
the 70's era Chrysler products because they had an air conditioner vent
beneath the steering wheel.



I owned a number of (used) Dodge Darts '72, '74, '76, '77.

Darts had two air-vent doors (each bigger than a CD jewel case) mounted
under the dash on the firewall, by the wheel wells. I think around that same
time GM was using those crappy sliding knobs that were built into plastic
vent covers, mounted just in front of the bottom door hinge.

Every year, in a rite of spring, I'd open one of those two Dart vent doors
(for the first time since fall) and get myself a healthy shot of dried out
leaf fragments.... It became sort of a yearly ritual. g

The fresh breeze would quite literally blow right 'up your skirt' in those
old Darts. Very refreshing! There was a plastic S-duct, to the outside,
connected (direct) to the Dart's two fresh air boxes. No routing it through
the dash vent system. Again, ...so refreshing, IYKWIM.
