This is why I asked if it was a driver. Adding AC even a full 1969/70 setup will lose you points. A dealer added setup with receipts is still a day two mod. If it's not on the Marti it's a deduction.
The OP needs to understand there seems to be a current trend for these cars to be returned to as born. While his desire for AC makes sense there are those who will look down their nose at whichever system he installs. As for me his car his choice - I'm not into judging and don't like a cars history being lost by turning it into a day one trailer queen.

The good things is, I don't care about points. I want a drivable car 365 days a year, and in Vegas that means AC. It's going to get done one way or the other. I don't want to do anything stupid or ugly, but it has to happen.
