Re: vintage air install picts
Parkwood, What did you make the under dash valence? out of? I love the way it hides the AC unit and provides mounts for the ducts. Need to fabricate something like that in the next few weeks. I'm using the Vintage air smallest universal unit due to firewall set back, etc. Thanks.

Re: vintage air install picts
I had a lower dash valance made out of steel but I also cut the bottom of my dash flush across the bottom. I also used a vintage air kit. Which was a little tricky with my *****in products firewall because of the set back.
BTW I taught Parkwood everything he knows.....Oh wait maybe it is the other way around.. Marc

Re: vintage air install picts
Ok, stupid question, does the "Vintage Air" setup also handle the heater side of things?

Re: vintage air install picts
The pictures show in this thread, are those AC only, or are they heat (hense the 4 lines going through the firewall??)
Does the unit grow in size as you add these options? I assume it does for heat since there is a heat exhanger for that as well, defrost is probably only more hoses under the dash and a different switch? |
