    A/C Condenser

    I have installed a 24 inch radiator in my 65 and it has solved the over heating issue, I am wanting to install a vintage air A/C system and my question is can I use a larger condenser that spans the width of the longer radiator without any issues? I like the clean look of the radiator grill without seeing the clutter of mounting tabs.

    Re: A/C Condenser

    I used the 67 condenser kit from Vintage Air with my 66 and 24” radiator.  The 67-specific tubing is a little more challenging to fit but it can be done.  I believe the condenser is same size as a 66 uses, though.

    The bigger condenser you can use, the colder air it will make.  You may want to get a custom size and fit it with the dryer and binary switch of your choice.

    Money you enjoy wasting is NOT wasted money... unless your wife finds out.
