<VV> Fans for AC condenser

[Harry Yarnell]

I have found that if you use the 'suitcase' corvair condenser, in the trunk, 
it fits perfectly in the well. Cut a hole in the bottom of the trunk, mount 
angle channel to the condenser, and it fits the framerails in the trunk . A 
Chevette electric fan mtd to the condenser does the cooling. Also from a 
Chevette, the aluminum trunk cover (hatchback?) makes a nice 'floor' over 
the condenser/fan combo. The fan was mtd as a puller.
Air for all this cooling comes from venting in the trunk cowl (right side) 
on a late model; can't remember how on an early. Gaps in the aluminum false 
floor allow sufficient air to reach the condenser.
