classic is the one who sells the perect fit A/C
for ebody DO NOTBUY IT nothing but problems ... nothing lined up ...wrong brackets--wrong dryer location-
poor instructions- wrong connections on hoses- with wrong angled connectors --- poor customer service... wanted to return entire unit after 20-30 calls to customer service ---

I used it on a 65 b body.
About 3 years ago I think. Did not have the problems described. But I used the universal kit.
Their customer service was very good to me. Shipped stuff out to me overnight when I found I needed something else to complete the conversion.
Again it was a universal kit, so I expected some things to be missing or not quite right.

The Coronet has Classic Auto Air in it. Easy install, ice cold. B Body. I was at the Shop and they do high end stuff down there in Tampa on Kennedy Blvd. Don't know about discounts. Price was fair.
Several years of good cold trouble-free service. Feels good in Reno in August. There is an e body install somewhere on the web with detail. Could be cudakid or similar. Good luck.

Back when I worked in a street rod/musclecar shop we only used kits from classic unless someone just wanted the vintage air name. It's good stuff from what I've seen, I didn't have any customer service problems since they were only about a mile from us at the time.
I'm putting one of their A/C kits in the Dart when the time comes, I can't beat the price even if I use stock stuff.

I called about flushing, pressure testing and straightening the fins on a evaporator and the same plus painting on a condenser for my 70 Charger. The price was 90 on the evap and 180 on the cond. My local shop charged 70 for both less paint. I had no shipping charges either. I thought they were high. I can do the work for that.

Bought the perfect fit set-up for my 66 Belvedere II. Had trouble with the fan switch fitment. Service department acted like I was the only one that ever had a problem.

I didn't know so many had problems with them. The only option appears to be Vintage air. I have a 68 RR so maybe I won't see the Ebody issues but it is alot to spend if things aren't right. I understand how that would upset folks. I would be too! Thanks guys

"Bouchillon under the hood" --- would agree with that statment but bouchillon likes you to keep the stcok a/c heater box under your dash ... if not you have to buy one from classic or vintage
if you do that the piece meal set up will cost you
a lot more .. trust me thats what i am doing on my 2nd install on my charger... bouchillion does a great job but dsnt have the total solution..
