There are several tubes, and they differ slightly by year.

There are water drain tubes that were black rubber. Those go down to 
the "firewall" where they direct water back to the ground.

On '71 and later, these consist of several formed plastic tubes that 
run from the fan box to the vents on the dash. SImilarly, there are 
plastic tubes that run up to the windshield to direct fresh air up 
there, too.

I have most of these in good used condition, but you'll have to tell 
me what year you have ('71?) and what you already have so I'll know 
what you're missing.
