Help wanted with broken ac

No matter how you got it it's sweet, and you're showing solid interest in doing her right. Much respect sent. Does it have the old RV-2 compressor? A big heavy V 2 cylinder design? Not very effecient, but man they blow cold. I have several. I can get part numbers if you need them. Several companies in the US will rebuild them for you, and you can convert them from R-12 to R-134. PM me if I can help you, young man.
