Just going through some Studebaker files of past receipts of car repairs.
Came across this one.....................in Jan of 1969 I had the Studebaker dealer install an Avanti air conditioner kit in my Avanti.............the complete cost came to (with tax) $ 447.00. I vividly remember having to leave the car there and was given a car to get around in until the install was finished.
The one thing he had to wait on was the drivers side carpet fill piece for the under dash unit......seems South Bend's supply was exhausted.
Since that time I have gone through two additional compressors.............still runs on R12 as I purchased three cases of one pound cans at the now defunct Strauss Auto Stores on sale............something like 59 cents per can!
Yes sir, the passage of time is something to reflect upon.
