Re: 72 "The Blue Burb of Happiness" Project

I finally had time to start finishing the interior over the last week. First I started with the under floor wiring to the rear speakers, A/C fan and seats. I put down sound deadening material on the large panels. I use a product called quick roof sold at Home Depot. It works the same as Dynamat at 1/5th the cost. It's butyl rubber membrane with aluminum scrim and self adhesive. It keeps the sheet metal panels from emitting noise due to resonant vibration and you don't have to cover everything 100%, just enough to dampen the vibration.

With the installation of Vintage Air, the fan switch in the dash contol panel does not get used. To keep things clean, I used it for the rear A/C and didn't have to add the factory rear switch in the dash by the headlight switch. It just made sense to keep all the A/C in one spot.

The combination of Vintage Air and the original rear unit work fantastic. This easily cools the big space.
