[DMCForum] Re: Restoration of 4512...completed

["Joe OBrien" <joeyoseppijoe@xxxxxxxxx>]

Where did you buy all the AC parts at? Around how much did you think 
it cost to replace ALL the AC parts? And you do plan on sticking 
with R-12?

Reason I ask, as I am contemplating just building a bullet proof AC 
system for 16851. Basically a ground up all new AC system, and 
staying with R-12, just curious what it cost you to do it all, since 
I haven't heard of many that have.

Congrats on driving the car and finishing the restoration of the 
frame.
