Re: Factory A/C vs Vintage
After pricing out the parts needed to rebuild my stock AC system, and an estimate to have an AC shop convert to do away with the expansion valve (including parts and labor plus parts and labor to get the other AC parts needed) it was only a few hundred more to get a VA system. I just could not see that kind cost of upgrading and kluging together a 40 year old system when the VA system heats and cools many times better. That and the cleanness of the cab and under hood install, it was an easy decision to make.
