Folks,

A couple list members & myself are interested in indentifing AC Companies
that can provide a Front/Dash AC solution for our Circa 1985 - 1990 Westy &
Syncro Vans.

Since moving to Arizona 1 mnth ago ... its apparent that the rear AC is
enough to keep one alive .... but that's about it.

If anyone has a Front AC Install ..... please give us feedback on its
performance and details.

If you know of companies that can provide a solution, please let us know.

Also, if you have specific questions you would like us to ask of companies
we contact, please send them to me.

I will add to our current question list.

So far I have identified Arizona Mobile Air Inc.(Phoenix, AZ) & European
Cooler Air, Inc. (Rockwall, TX ) as two potential sources.

I have been in email contact with European Cooler Air, Inc.

www.europeancoolerair.com

Here a quote I got from them.

"THE COST FOR THE 16,000 BTU EVAPORATOR ASSEMBLE WITH ALL PARTS TO HOOK IT
UP
TO THE OEM SYSTEM IS $650.00 THE TIME TO INSTALL THE SYSTEM IS 5 HOURS."

"YES, I CAN DO THE INSTALLATION, I WILL HAVE TO CHARGE YOU TAX, 6.75% FOR
PARTS ONLY AND THE (FREON ABOUT $25.00)EXTRA.
SO THE TOTAL COST WOULD BE.
$650.00   PARTS
$  25.00   FREON
$  43.86   TAX
$ 300.00   LABOR
$1018.86   TOTAL
Phone: 972-722-3791
jwest@europeancoolerair.com"

It's my intent to call them next week and speak about the install and parts
in more detail.

Right now the specifics are fuzzy.

This morning I sent Arizona Mobile Air Inc an inquiry email.

When we are done with this inquiry I'll summarize the results and publish to
the list.

Happy Trails,
