is there any market for a used AC system?
« on: December 07, 2006, 10:14:04 »
a friend of mine has an AC system he wants to get out of the garage.  I believe it came out of a 70 or 71 280SL and all the pieces are there.  
Are people buying these things?  
Maybe in the california market?  

He asked me to put it up on Ebay for him but I wanted to see what it might be worth and if there is even a market for them before I take the time to put it up on Epay.  From what I saw of my search on this site it looks like many of you take them out for the extra cabin space.

Thanks for any feedback you can give me.

There's definitely a market for them. Even if it's not installed, people will often hold on to a unit just so they can always have that option in the future.

I'll get some pictures - thanks for the feedback.  Erick - I've tried emailing you several times but it seems all emails to hotmail.com are getting kicked back.  I'll try it from home instead of work.
