Default ATC for sure

I understand the 1965 ATC was a very rarely included option so that would explain it being so rarely seen.

It is clearly shown in the dash drawings of the 1965 Pontiac Air Conditioning Service Manual. Section 7-15

Described as an Air Sensor Grill

There is some sort of vent in the dash pad that looks factory near the driver. The guy said his dad used to smoke and the smoke would get sucked into this vent? That would be correct but I imagine only to a very limited degree. The system draws a small amount of air through that grill and it is measured for temperature so the system can balance and maintain the preset temperature.

My own '66 Grand Prix has ATC air and the air sensor grill is located under the dashpad, not cut into it like a '65.
