Hello again Teeners! As I go about sorting out the new to me Bumblebee, I wonder about the value/viability of the non functioning dealer installed AC. The negatives I see are about 100 pounds of dead weight, a wide open and chopped frunk floor, less frunk space, and questionable plumbing and wiring.
I'm interested in hearing opinions regarding any positives against these negatives. If I were to pull it out I would most likely hold on to it in the event the next steward would want it. Or offer it for sale to any interested parties. Looking forward to all replies! |

A functioning A/C system does not hurt value IMO. Yes the installs at the dealers weren't the greatest but A/C is such a nice feature to have and as long as its working few would complain about it.
A car that has had its system removed but is left with hackjob/holes in place does more to hurt its value. Unless you're doing a full restoration with extensive rework to fill up the holes, I would leave the system in place, get it operational and enjoy. My 0.02. |
