Any value for my old factory A/C? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

ChevLoRay · 10-21-2009, 01:12 PM

I know we have a WIW forum, but this question is really about whether or not there are parts/pieces from these trucks that people want or don't. I plan on installing an aftermarket HVAC, maybe just the heat/defrost so I have all of the components from my A/C system that I don't need/want. Would it be better as a unit, i.e., "lot" or sold piece-by-piece? I won't price anything on this forum, just looking for guidance.

It seems like there is a demand for brackets and such. Also is it a BB or SB set up? That also makes a difference. Good Luck.

I tried selling as a whole with no luck. It moved much faster selling in pieces. Having done that, I need to reaquire some of the interior boxes.

Some guys like me need the whole set-up but im sure shipping would suck!

I was wondering the same thing, I just removed my whole system the other day. I have everything but the compressor.

I would post it as a complete set 1st, then after a week or so list them as parts. It has taken me a few months to piece all the parts together for my 67, but like most I still have other (A/C) trucks that the PO remove some or all the parts!
