<VV> A/C Production

[LonzoVair at aol.com]

Bill,
Another indicator of "factory a/c" would be the engine code matching the  
code for 110/pg & a/c (and your timing plate should be riveted on with a  
"24° plate" like the turbos had, since the Owner's manual says to set the 
timing  at that... the '67 Shop Manual says the same) and the date on the engine 
should  be somewhat close to the date on the assembly plate, like 1 to 4 
weeks  prior...
The top cover (turkey roaster) on the 66-67 a/c also has the fresh  air 
hose on the left side, not the right.
I think your windshield should say "Soft ray"... so it may have come with a 
 tinted windshield, but it could have been changed at some time.
Take care,
Lonzo

Hi guys, I have a question on factory A/C installations.  Does  the 
presence of a Frigidaire compressor, built-in vents in the dash  (rectangular in 
upper center, balls on each end), and five-knob temperature  control for heat 
and A/C combined, always indicate a factory C64 air  conditioning 
installation? Or is it possible that the dealer unit (I don't  have the option number, 
but I know Chevy has a code for dealer-installed A/C)  would have the same 
features?

I'm trying to determine if my car's A/C  is factory or dealer installed.  
It has ALL of the features mentioned  above, but with one issue.  According 
to what I know, tinted glass was  fitted on all GM's factory A/C 
installations.  My '66 Monza Sport Sedan  has an aftermarket tinted windshield, and what 
I'm sure is original, but clear  (non-tinted) "Safety LOF Plate" side and 
rear glass.

Thanks...Bill  Hershkowitz 66 Monza Sport Sedan 110 PG  A/C
