A company called Vintage Air manufactures A/C for hot rods. They make a
small unit just about the size of the heater in our GT6's & Spitfires. I'm
planning on putting one in my GT6 when I get around to it.
See them online at: www.vintageair.com or telephone at 800-to-cool-u. They
put out a catalog you can request online.
