I think there was more built with the plastic. The metal vents look nicer on a air cooled i think

Re: ac with late rear vents
I think they only made them with metal vents for the first couple of years (i either read it myself somewhere or made it up).
Mine has metal vents and looks better in my opinion. Except when it come to painting it

Mine, '82, has plastic vents, Dad's (Sarran1955), '79, has metal vents. Both Aircooled, CTs.
Metal vents look nicer, in my opinion.
