Talked to my dad...

He says he's looking at modding a honda civic AC system to his bug.
Or maybe he meant CRX??
Probably the latter.
At any rate. I'll let him guinea pig his car first and see what happens. Last thing I heard was he found one for $100 form some kid who ditched it form his ricer.
I also gave him a perfectly functional compressor from a Volvo to mess with.
We shall see!!!

Hi

Aparently the Toyota Prius have a electriclay driven compressor, would be great on a bug with limited room.

Instead of Filmore, I think it's Gilmore

This is what I'm currently planning to get in a '73 SB sedan. Hoping to have it in by spring / summer of 2006.

My 1302 came with a dealer installed unit, all I'm going to use from that is the condensor (fits nicely behind the front apron) and the evaporator unit (it too fits nicely under the dash). I've seen these items on thesamba.com. I will be putting a new dehydrator, and mating a modern style compressor to my type IV. I also have to run new plumbing cause the po decided to cut all that stuff . Living in the desert, AC is a must.
