All: I've been distracted for a while but back in Teener mode getting the Bumblebee ready for the PIB festivities. I've been vacillating since buying the car on what to do with the dealer installed AC, long inoperable. Long story short, it gonna be 'out of here'.
First step was the condenser, Stoddards sells a replacement piece for the frunk floor and tow hook. Next is the under dash unit, reciever/dryer and hoses. This winter when I do a clutch job the compressor will come off and the tin will be replaced. If anyone has a tin piece for a 74 2.0 I would be interested. Any condition except rust is acceptable. My question: Is any of this hardware worth keeping? I can't imagine anyone using this car as a daily driver. And if someone wanted AC I believe they would start at Griffiths and finish with a working conditioner. Any thought are appreciated. Thanks! Rob PS; After almost 4 years of messing with the braking system, I FINALLY was able to get some front wheel lock yesterday. Third set of calipers from 'you know who' and another regulator from the same. It's nice to have binders that I can count on! |

IMHO, everything on the A/C system is worth saving/selling except: the compressor, the condenser, the dryer, and all the hoses (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) But seriously, there might be a need out there for the compressor mounting hardware and the condenser box but an evaporator with good vents is always desired. I've already purchase a 2nd hand evap for my LE for when I redo/reinstall the system. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) The only thing I believe is worth saving is the evaporator unit. Everything else is not worth it. |
