Hi Volks,

I just thought I'd let you all know how my little prodject is coming.
Well, it's too hot (92 deg.) to work on my A/C!  I'll wait till it cools
down....

But I will report where I got my parts and how much it hurt for those of
you who might be coming this way and would like to know which shops I
patronized.

2.)     DISCOUNT AUTO PARTS of Marathon, FL

I picked up eight (8) cans of R-134a at a cost of $3.33 each (non-sale
price is $4.30 I think).

The guy who is actualy doing the A/C work (I'm doing the grunt-mech.
part) does house calls and does this in the evenings. During the day,
his reg. job is head of Monroe County Vehicle Maintenance in Marathon,
FL. He's the one that makes sure our brave county sherff and deputy
officers are cool.

When we are done, I'll let you-all know.

Wishing you-all a cool one....
