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

If you plan on modern refrigerant, a parallel flow condenser is better than the serpentine coil.

I have had great luck with the original AC in my 66 Barracuda. I changed dryer, expansion valve and compressor seals in 1980, has stayed charged since. Almost unbelievable. It is so hot and humid here, it is used all summer.
