<VV> "smog engines" with A/C

[Thompson, Ed]

My LA-built '66 Monza sedan, no A/C, sold new by Swaney Chevrolet in Corona CA in November of 1965, still has its functioning A.I.R. w/ second fan belt.  '67 Vairs (all built at Willow Run, Van Nuys having produced its last Vair in March of 1966) w/ factory A/C (only available w/ 95 or 110 motor), built for delivery to California dealers, came w/ three fan belts, I've personally seen just two or three of 'em over the years.  '66 LA-built cars with A/C had an A.I.R exemption.  With just under 1,400 factory A/C cars built in the entire '67 model year, and perhaps let's say a max of 20% of those headed to California dealers, it would seem there are very few, factory built, 3-belt Vairs still around.

Mark Corbin, or other A/C experts (that does not include me) who may be following VV, please comment or correct.
