So how am I going to control myself as I look at that original 68 compressor and ask myself just how difficult it would be to rebuild and use it?
Although, when I rebuild something it becomes one of my automotive "children", I probably don't need any more since I already worry about the engine I built, the trans, the rear end. When I buy something new I tend to use it and not worry about it ... I have way too much empathy for machines.
I assume those old A6 compressors are a dime a dozen?
SS-TA ... that GM number still comes up good, looks like you can buy it right off Amazon.
