> We're talking about an A/C compressor, right?
> 
> While I'll gladly pay you to do the work, I'd love to know where to pick up
> a working compressor for $100.
> 
> The ones I've seen are rebuilt and cost $300-400 or more!
> 
> Also, on Napa's website, there's a disclaimer on the compressor page "To
> Insure System Performance & as a Condition of Warranty, a new Filter Drier
> /
> Accumulator & Orifice Tube must be used when Replacing Compressor. We
> Recommend the Condenser, Evaporator, Hoses & Expansion Devices be Replaced
> when Condition is Suspect.@, w/ 10P15F A/C Compressor"
> 
> So, what all would you be willing to replace?  Oh, and you have a license
> and/or access to R-12?
> 
> Hell, if you want to spend a day at my house I can keep you busy.  Fuel
> pump, subframe connecotors (since you'll have a welder, obviously), A/C,
> '96
> brake upgrade (knuckles and all), etc.  I've got parts, just need a
> mechanic!
> 
> Let me know if you're serious.
