Larmo - like others, including Frank, I yanked the compressor and condensor out of the engine area. When I drop the motor I will yank the bracket. I had a 5-year old 87 Coupe with 26K miles on it that spewed warm kitten breath in the summer. Never a high point in FL in August. I was OK with driving the car and sweating a little, and then it was my only car. I bought this one for fun, not commuting. Have kept all of the parts, but leaning towards dropping in the electric AC after my other punch list items are done. Note the strategy when dealing with the homefront comptroller - do all the mechanical upgrades first for you. Once that is done, I plan on driving with her more - she loves the car, but will make sure it is warm out. And just like that, of course it needs an AC upgrade...

Its a classic sports car. I agree with Frank, it is the feel and fun driving it. It has soul...
