In about a month I will be taking delivery of my next project, a rust free 74 2.0. this car was ordered with the A/C, these I understand were all dealer installed.
After looking at the install I just have one thing to say (for those of you who havent seen one)what a hack job they basically cut the front trunk floor pan out for the condenser and cut the engine seal area in the engine bay for the hoses. I have been looking for patch peices for this area and I dont think anyone is reproducing that piece but maybe Im wrong. I am not planning to use A/C and I am planning to remove and repair the places that were dealer hacked does anyone know where I can get a front trunk floor pan? I am guessing itll come from a donor car, any sawzall parties in the near future? The short term plan for this is to bring it back to daily driver status with a projected driver status completion in Oct. after that I will try and give a break to have it painted. On a better note other than that the car is really clean and shouldnt take too much work to complete. Oh BTW its signal orange |
