I haven’t had AC on my car in 20 years. I’m putting it back. I forgot the exact routing down the pass side of the car. Since I filled holes, I want to drill any new holes now before the engine is in.

anyone with the ac lines still in place care to snap a few pics of the line running down the pass frame rail to the connection at the condenser?


also..ac condensers?? Where did they all go? I cant find any to buy

I missed out on a NOS one a while back. I have given up tyat I’ll find another.

the one brand that popped up on Rockauto was out of stock when I looked. I don’t know much about that brand though.

Sorry Mike this is the only one I have on my phone. The liquid line just lays in the frame recess all the way and isn't connected. It won't move. I can get the forward shot tomorrow if that's what you need?

Thanks, that’s actually a pretty helpful shot right there. I just need to see what the two lines do under the alternator if you or anyone else has a shot of that area.
