A/C or no A/C in the Scamp?

My friend, who is running a heavily modified /6 duster, pulled the entire A/C system from his car and gave it to me, minus the engine components (compressor, brackets, pulleys, etc.)

He handed over both sections of the heater core, the A/C / Heater control, vacuum harness and vents.

The heater core that I have for the Scamp that is in it, has a brand new core and I have a spare that needs minor soldering. It works fine, the way it is.

If I do install this system, I'm going to put a more modern compressor down low and run a twin V belt off of the alternator with a different pulley, so the system will work better and stay out of the way, under the hood. I will be routing my own high and low pressure lines, insulation and build my own bracketry.

Factory stuff that I would run:

Heater / AC boxes
Heater / AC control and vacuum door harness
A/C condenser and line drier, evaporator and lines from the firewall, inboard.

Everything else will be aftermarket and I will relay the condenser. The car does not have a clutch fan at the moment and will likely not be getting one if I do this.

My question is; would this be worth the effort? The car is a cruiser. It will see the road and the A/C will be used at some points, especially on road trips to Nevada, Oklahoma and California, if I install it.

I don't have the tinted Airtemp glass for the car and won't likely be getting it, any time soon.

If not, I'm considering replacing the solid fan with a clutch fan.
