Post power locks rear vent

I have a 66 Town Landau with no AC. I am looking to find out what the under hood vacume hose connections for the power door locks and the rear vent should be (intake manifold to canister?, passenger side hose, hose from firewall connections...?)

Is anyone familiar with these connections?

Under dash and all interior connections should be ok I just need to know what goes where under the hood. Should there be a T some where?

Thanks,
Steve66

Steve,
I have air on my 66 Landau but I think the vaccum connections are the same. There is a T in the line to the reserve tank under the hood that goes to the rear vent and power door locks. It is routed into the console and goes to both the power door and rear vent control. If you remove the center cover (on the console) you will be able to ck. to see if you are getting vaccum there.
Hope this helps.

Hi Paul,

I live in western Coventry. I have been quite busy lately and havent even been to a cruise with the car yet this season. My bird is what I consider unrestored, not at show quality yet. I have been improving its condition a little at a time.
How about yours?

Steve
