It's a factory ac car but nothing but the evaporator core and compressor (which is a sealed factory reman) is there so I'm trying to find all the parts to get it back to factory type or something close to that.I'm not really interested in the after markrt kit since I have a few of the parts.Do you have integral AC or hang-on AC?

Thanks that helps ALOT.I think the 72 satellite I use to have ha dthe hang on type come to think of it the controls was on the vent unit.If you have factory installed AC then here is one for you for $35.00

The hang on I mentioned is also Chrysler but it was installed by the dealer.

I know that the 72 and older is for the 22" radiator and the 73 and up is for the ??26"??.The only book I have on the shelf covers 1971 & up.
The 1971 & '72 show the same condensor - '73 & up a different part.
I would like to go 134a so the stock condensors aren't as good for 134a?The only book I have on the shelf covers 1971 & up.

depending on what you plan to do, you can either upgrade the condensor to a parallel flow type for 134a operation - or replace it with a tube & fin type for R12 refrigerant.
Either way, the place to go for info & parts is Arizona Moble Air. They are a multi generation company, and have a lot of knowledge when it comes to the old stuff.

I would like to go 134a so the stock condensors aren't as good for 134a?
The stock Tube & Fin type condensors in any vehicle have a poor track record when converted to 134a. High head pressures & poor performance.
If you are willing to make a change to a newer style condensor, you can have great performance. Newer cars have good A/C with smaller compressors. If you keep the RV2 you can have better cooling than it had when new.
The condensor from a 2006 CTS-V is the right size. It is 22 inches across the core, about 16.5 high, and has great mounting tabs. The dryer is part of the condensor, so that will clean up the plumbing & engine bay. The dryer element is replaceable.
Hope this helps.

I would rather stay as stock as possible and I have a couple of the key parts.It's a factory air car so I'm trying to stay with that.I didn't know the r12 was so available.I want my car as an original so I am going to stay with R12. They say the V2 compressor like you have won't hold up to the R134A either. Plenty of R12 floats around on eBay.
