Re: I'm Looking for factory air for my 1966 k10
a motor home!? Sneaky. I am going to keep my eyes peeled at Carlisle....
Yes, while not exactly the cheapest route - I think I'd go the extra mile of saving up for a Southern Air, or any of the many aftermarket mfgrs - and buy the kit (or even call to customize it) that came with the least (or no) interior parts other then the controller (i.e. skip the generic a/c outlet balls, etc) and then get all ingenuitous with it and fab up some custom flexi-hoses from the kit box outlet to the factory dash outlets. Nothing wrong with the kit a/c outlet balls - but I like the idea of it looking like a factory setup inside. If I can't find one - I did see a pretty neat setup in a recent Truck magazine article where the builder mounted the generic a/c outlets on hinges so that when the a/c was off, the outlets rotated back under the dash, out of the way. It was a pretty slick setup.
Oh yes, and I do realize ingenuitous is not a real word, but I like it.
