1965 289 Convertible Snorkel

Looking for photos or information on what the snorkel on a 289 convertible would look like. These are the ones that have a notch cut out for the tubular brace that cuts across the snorkel. I dont have an original piece so will modify one of the extra snorkels I have to match what the factory did. April/May 1965 Dearborn built convertible.

This is from a 5F stamped one. Not sure if this will give you everything you want, but reach out and I will take whatever measurements you need.

I would still like to see what it looks like installed on a finished car if anyone has a photo they can post of that.

Marcus,
Do not have a picture with the snorkel installed, but the cut appears to have been made straight.

Thanks Mike and those others who contacted me offline. Was able to accurately modify a snorkel today...showing some before and after photos and why Ford had to cut the snorkel.
