new owner - what is my vin number

[rtherr]

 Hi Dakazman.

All the numbers agree. Thank you for the frame location and the spreadsheet.

Here are some pics of the air setup
The first one shows the compressor and condenser. You can see the modified brace that goes between the tops of the shocks. It is fabricated out of heavier steel ( not substantially heavier but ...).
The second one is the modified stock water pump pully with another welded on to it.
The third is the front air handler.

I cant say how it works yet, I hope it's not too much of a load on the cooling system.

Thanks for the pictures, rtherr!! Have you checked out the frame? What are your plans? A body off restoration? A rolling restoration? Modifications?

Good luck! It should be a fun and exciting journey whatever you do!

Air conditioning!
Not a good location for the hose.
I will have to lexan that off!

The standard way to do it uses shaped fiber panels. But RD Enterprises now sells pre-cut PVC panels to close off the front and rear openings. And you do want them closed or you'll be digging gravel out of the sill area.

  Rtherr,
  I got to look at the pictures better today on a desktop monitor. One item I see is the extra weight added to the water pump bearing. JBCollier has modified his water pump to accept another bearing machined onto the front section of the pump.  I can't seem to find the thread right now but highly recommend it.
  the lines going to the evaporator all most follow mine , however I entered the cabin area just prior the wall. its a work in progress where I'm going to enter the front boot with the lines.
