factory ac and posi-trac on a 59?
i've owned task force trucks since 73, seen many more...
i have never seen factory ac in a 59 the 59 shop manual supplement shows cool pak ac as an option in 59 not a swamp cooler but a full ac system with condenser, evaporator, compressor and dryer it shows the unit mounted on the floor offset on the trans cover separate from the heater. it also showed repair procedures for posi on the 3100 never have i seen either option in a 59. anyone have pics?

Re: factory ac and posi-trac on a 59?
I started my career in a gear / axle / trans repair shop. I have seen the posi unit installed although the axle was not in a pickup. I've also seen that early air system in a car but not a truck. When I was in Montana there was a guy there who specialized in '58 Impala restorations and brought one to a show that was fully optioned with A/C and factory record player.
