Jim Cameron asks about A/C pricing. I must admit that, after buying the Mike
Custard/Lancair system, I agree that the A/C can be made much more cheaply.
Essentially, as he suggests, it is an aftermarket system for your 64 Ford
pickup. The hardest part to find is the underdash unit. That becomes the
part in the back of the cabin. Condensers and fans are easily located, as
are compressors. Hoses require special crimped connectors, and it helps to
have a hose place nearby (Mine is about 5 miles away).

I don't wish to be derogatory. There was a lot of work went into the
original install. The developers provide us with all the bits and pieces.
And they found the parts. Further, they deserve a return on their
investment. But, knowing the little key information about air ingress and
egress for the condenser, it should be possible to replicate the kit for
under $1,000. You just have to chase down the parts.
