I found an under dash air self contained air conditioning unit installed in a 1972 Jimmy located in a wrecking yard. The fans works and I bought it for $50.00. I would like to install it into my 69 C10. It looks very well made and has a nice metal Jimmy name plate on it.
I'm wondering if this is a GM product that was offered by GM parts department to retrofit non-ac vehicles or an aftermarket unit. Does anyone have information on a unit like this? I'd like to change the Jimmy nameplate ( 1" X 6 1/2 " ) to an appropriate name plate for my 68 C10 and a couple of the outlet vents are damaged and need to be repaired or replaced. Can anyone help with that? I've attached a few pictures of the unit. |

Re: Factory under dash a/c ?
I just sent an email to https://www.classicautoair.com/?q=GM_OEM_Parts.html Hopefully they can recognize my ac unit.
I didn't see anything on their website like my unit. |

Re: Factory under dash a/c ?
Potentially dealer installed, or some A/C outfit local to them did it and then the dealer put that label on. That's not a "factory" A/C evaporator set up.

Re: Factory under dash a/c ?
Aftermarket unit, someone just stuck the Jimmy badge on there. Looks good though, someone wanted you to think it was factory
