@Dhilts58 – Did you buy this at the McCormick auction? Did you look into repairing the AC? I live in palm Desert and AC is a must. Thanks Dave ...

No. I purchased it from a private party. About the AC I did not try to fix it due to very high costs.

Hello everyone I received a question from an enthusiast party about where I purchased the car in Palm Desert and if I have tried to fix the AC. I purchased the car from a private party and not from an auction house. Also I did not try to have AC fixed due to high costs. I hope I adequately explained and answered the question. Thank you for your interest.
