12:05 Garage- ’70 Duster build

This is useless info now, but thought I would post some info I found out last week.

Been brainstorming how to replicate some of the features from the Challenger I just sold into my Duster. AC was one of those, but the auto temp feature felt like too big of a task. Asked Vintage Air if they had any options to control their Mark IV evap with a tablet (expecting that said tablet would obscure the OE climate controls). Guy replied that they did not, but that Dakota Digital had partnered with them to create a controller that monitored air temp and adjusted the blend doors to maintain it. Very cool!!

It sure was nice to get in the car and just start driving without messing with any temp controls regardless of what it was like outside (outside of defrost). Really has me thinking of making a run at a Mark IV evap and DD controller at some point.

A friend of mine actually told me about the Dakota controllers right after I bought mine. They are pretty nice. It's rare that I use the climate control function in my 19' Ram, so no need for it in the Duster. I live in the South, I'm sure I'll just leave the AC cranked to 11!
