A/C help.

There's several ways around making lines. You might be able to get factory replicas I'm not sure. You can buy line and connections and take them and have them crimped or buy an expensive crimper... Also it sounds like you're trying to puzzle together an old r12 system and r12 isn't easy to come by.. not even sure if it's legal anymore.. me personally I've done several of the vintage air systems and they're okay for my customers. Personally I've done aftermarket generic cold master systems on both of my vehicles that were 1/3 of the price and twice the air conditioning.. they come with a generic over length of line and twice the BTUs... The biggest factor is the compressor brackets for the new style compressor. CVF racing has kits if he needs something direct fit but I just custom made my own...
