  1. Air Conditioning & Heating Systems
    I am in the process of a 59 restoration, and am looking to refresh the AC unit that came with the vehicle when I bought it. I am having trouble identifying it though, and figured I would ask here to see if it's familiar to anybody. To note, the factory stamp does not specify an AC package, but...
  2. Heating & Air Conditioning Systems
    I have a 77 El Camino with a 305. The AC has been dead for many years. I'd like to get the AC System swapped out and working again. Does anyone know a shop in the Mpls/St. Paul area that they would recommend? I'm not sure what the various after market options are for retrofitting AC in old...

  4. Heating & Air Conditioning Systems
    Hello, I recently bought my first El Camino (1987) it was originally a v6 but it has been swapped to a 305. The guy I bought it from ripped out all emissions and computer-related parts during the swap and it runs and drives great but he never finished connecting any HVAC stuff back together. He...

    So, my impala is a factory AC car, but the AC components are gone. I've got a new heater core and blower motor coming so I can get the heat working. Rock auto has the compressor and a few other tidbits in a package here: http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/moreinfo.php?pk=5247804&cc=1323841...
  7. Heating & Air Conditioning Systems
    I am in the process of converting my EC to TPI. As part of that process, I have converted to a serpentine belt system. The serpentine belt system caused the AC compressor to now be mounted on the passenger side (and the alternator on the driver side). As a result, I am in the midst of...
  8. Heating & Air Conditioning Systems
    So, my air cooling is not working, I kinda just want to remove the whole system to simplify my engine bay, but I'm a complete novice with this stuff, and don't want to screw anything up. So I want to keep my Heating cause that's working, and I'm planning on removing the air compressor first, I...
  9. Heating & Air Conditioning Systems
    I have a 80 El Camino Conquista and the A/C has started showing some strange behavior in the past few weeks. 1) The air conditioner/heater will only blow through the vent on the top of the dash meant for the defrost. It will not switch back down to blow on you. 2) The A/C shuts off when I...
  10. Heating & Air Conditioning Systems
    So I'm attempting to make a discovery on why my A/C clutch won't engage? A/C is not a solid area with me, as most of my classic vehicles do not have A/C. My question is this: I have a 1987 El Camino, V8, with air. I had a friend use his a/c hose kit to see if fluid was in the system. He noted...
  11. Heating & Air Conditioning Systems
    Just bought a mixed breed, 81,82, and 83 El Camino, all wrapped up in one titled as an 81. Very clean car. The former owner told me he was selling it because it had been broke into, had the stereo and such stole out of it, and before they got caught, had damged the steering column pretty good...
