Decisions, Decisions................... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

New to this site and wanted some opinions. I just picked up a 1947 1/2 ton and is in sorta okay shape. Some rust here and there such as in the floor but nothing I would consider too terrible. I will be disassembling the truck very soon and will be doing a very mild custom build on this.

The side cowl panel on the drivers side may need to get replaced as it was pushed in by the driver's door at some point. The opinions I was looking for was whether you would keep the side vent on the diver's side or not? I know these vents were only on '47 - '49 pickups, if I remember correctly, and am not sure if it is worthwhile to save the side vent. I will be adding a/c to this truck if that makes a difference.
