'49 Merc question on part #47 air tubes

[bobss396]

I'm going through the parts in the kit and was wondering what part #47 was. These are called "air tubes" and they plug into the firewall. What the heck are they?

Thanks, Bob

Beats me, I thought they were airbags for the front suspension until I actually read the instructions!

Joe, I got an answer elsewhere that works, they're simple air inlet tubes for fresh interior air. I'm going to paint them so they kind of blend into the underhood scheme.
