Got more pics of the install? It looks great. Love the location of the blackout switches. Is this a heat/cool combo?

Yes, I will get some more pics later of everything. Yes it's all new heat and A/C system. The kit is very good but quite a bit of work. In fact I don't know if I will do it again anytime soon!

I also moved the volt meter down and mounted it using an old STE/ICE bracket. Perfect fit.

I missed that! Super cool job. Is the unit loud? I did an in dash ad on to an 88V3500 crew cab and the unit sounded like a jet taking off inside.

Here are a few pics of under the hood. The bracket kit for the compressor is good and comes with a slave pulley to install on the crank. You need to do some good trimming on both battery trays to get everything to fit. Installing the evaporator under the dash takes time and is the most difficult part.


It's not wired up yet...

Nice install. I would be interested in the Vintage Air part number of the kit. I was only aware of Nostalgia air Products making a bolt on CUCV set of brackets and pulleys until this thread.

Thanks.
