TMCP #504: Rick Love from Vintage Air; Re-inventing Class Car A/C, Electric Compressor Evaluations, and Killer Hot Rod!
Every year Vintage Air introduces new products and quite often they win awards for creativity and technology. This year they are offering a new product line for 1982 to 1988 G body vehicles including Monte Carlo and El Camino. He noted that there are more differences between G body vehicle than one would think. Main dash units are fairly shallow and ninety percent of the content in a production dash is filled up with AC and heating components. With todays modern technology that space can be condensed and upgraded to better performance with a Vintage Air system that utilizes electronic controls, better blower and current R134 refrigerant. Rick said the new system even includes a new firewall plug to relocate the new parts and even a steel glove box to fit around the upgraded installation.
