Um......a salvage yard MAY have one, but I think a/c cars are way more common than non-ac cars. You could ditch the box altogether, and get the block-off plate, it looks pretty baller and makes plug changes a snap.

The AC box and AC delete boxes were exactly the same from the factory. The holes for the AC lines got a cheesy cover glued in from the factory (I have an original AC-delete car).

Yea..just cut the face of it off, make a little passage way for the Blower Motor to blow into the Heater Core, make a Panel for it and you will be good.

The Panel I have is something I made from 1/16" thick Aluminum. I prefer mine rather than some of the aftermarket ones there...I think it looks cleaner, more stock.

^^That's a nice piece. Mine is similar to that. Without any sound deadening in my car and the exhaust running right under my legs the interior stays kinda warm though, no need for heat. My blower motor is still hooked up though, so it will blow interior air onto the windshield should I take it out on a 40 degree day or whatnot. Still keeps the windshield clear, which is all I really need.
