you's crazy. the next one. i tell ya, if this d60 sits around for too long, it'll end up in a trailer headed north, or in some old chevy... haha

I was short on money when I did this one and went with what I had available. When I do the next 67-72 it will probably get an auto world type a/c comp mount and vintage air.

i know this guy who set his engine real low and made a bunch of crap to solve these issues you speak of. he even has the F700 inlet still wrapped in cosmoline paper hiding somewhere from that long lost dream. ha! besides, that autoworld a/c stuff is less pretty.
