    Damn, how much was that compressor? I got lucky and my grandma replaced mine before I got the car, but that is massively expensive. Like $475 for a factory replacement.

    Another thing, it looks like the compressor ran an R12 system in it because of the sizing of the hi/lo lines. Are you going to leave it as R12, or convert it to R134a? That R12 will cost you an arm and a leg. It's like $60 per lb whereas the R134a is like $6 lol.

    Egypt? No shit? LoL, damn, that's mighty far away. $100 is outrageously cheap too, lucky bastard.

    Excellent! Looks to be in really good shape. I hope you checked the stator coil resistance before you bought it though to make sure the clutch is good.

    I guess $100 isn't all too bad for a good compressor. They go for $40 at the boneyard here, but I got mine off ebay for $20 God I love ebay, lol

    Is it that hot over there in Egypt? Next time you take pictures, try putting on more clothes. You know there are some underage people here, right?

    No, it's just not in me to look at other men, especially when they're half naked. Don't worry about my age. I'm 21. And hey, too.
