1966-FASTBACK

i bought my 1966 Fastback 4 yrs ago so i figure the Aftermarket air-cond unit is atleast 5 or 6 yrs old. it came in the car and i believe it is a classic unit for under dash. my question is when i take the complete system off is it seperated from my heater box or are they as one. it has seperate controls on the vents. here is a pic.

Such systems are entirely separate from the heater. You can even run both at the same time. I did that once when driving on cool day with heavy rain. Bad move. I got dense fog out of the AC.

He is correct. That system should be completely separate from the heater box. That one is not a dealer installed one though. The face plate is different. Why are you taking the system off?

Why are you taking it off, just to repair something?

1966-FASTBACK

the reason i'm taking system off is due to i have a brand new 331 Stroker i'm getting ready to put in and the car is just going to be a once or twice a week toy to drive. i only used the system 2 or 3 times in 2 years before. taking it off will give me tons more room in my engine compartment and for my new radiator. i am just going to sell the complete system probably on craigslist.

Even still, I would keep the AC.

My car is only driven 1 or 2 times a week and there are those days when its really hot and its just nice to have.
