A/c for my "66" ???

...After a long summer in southern oregon I'm thinking about an A/C system, I have a "350" with the serpentine system on it and a "blank" dash to work with ( see photo )
I need some ideas for the installation, and just who has the best most dependable system, NOT THE CHEAPEST! all photo's welcome.....thank you...

Take a look at "Old Air Products" or "Vintage Air". I've seen both and they look pretty good. Haven't got one for mine yet, but I'm leaning towards Old Air...

Awesome looking dash by the way!

I'm going with Vintage air in my 65.....the Gen IV is currently being developed for our trucks as a sure fit..top of the line as far as i'm concerned

Re: A/c for my "66" ???

Personally I like the Classic Air system. It uses the factory heater control panel and I like the way the heater and A/C hoses are routed much better. A friend installed this system in his 65 truck and is VERY pleased with it. When I bought my 64 C10 it already had a Vintage system installed. They are about the same price. Here's the link for the installation instructions Classic system:

Myself and my dad have the Old Air Products system in our trucks, it works very well and I am only about 3 miles from their office, so that helps too.
