This is kinda off subject question but is about the subject on hand. Was 
this fresh air motor an available option through all the type 3 years or is 
it a option certain models have? I ask because if you have guessed it yet "I 
did not know there was such a thing" and needless to say my 67 Fasty does 
not have a (Fresh Air Motor). I only have the 3 vents and the knobs to open 
them.
