These systems were offered in L Bugs in the US and thus are suited for LHD vehicles.
It is missing the condenser and the evaporator has a crack in the housing. I never bothered attempting to restore and install it as my car resto was a complete mission in itself and it was going to be a whole heap more effort to restore this unit and install it; all for something I'd never really use.
When I bought it roughly 5 years ago I was chatting to a guy on this forum who had the unit fitted to a RHD vehicle however it would have required some customizing as the evaporator was designed to suck air in from a hole cut in the metal behind the glovebox and blow it back through into the car via the duct of the fan mounted in the windscreen wiper housing.
Apart from a condenser, the system would require some love if it was to go in a show vehicle.
Images on the internet well document how the system was set up.
Includes-
evaporator
wiring loom and controls
compressor and mounts
crank shaft pulley
3 x hoses
accumulator
Can pick it up from Poowong in Gippsland, Doncaster in Melbourne or Burpengary just north of BNE as I float between the locations. It's currently in Vic and is that heavy it may take me several 'R&R' trips back to BNE for it to be included in the free baggage allowance.
I would think there would only be a couple of these systems in AUS.
Make an offer, I want it gone from the back seat of my car.
