Would Like To Put Air Conditioning Into My 69 Superbee.

The Car Did Not Come Factory With A/C
and I Don't Really Want To Put The
'Under Dash' Unit In If I Don't Have To.

Heard Good Things About Classic Auto Air

Is There a Template To Cut Out The Firewall/Dash Holes That Anyone Knows Of To Use The Factory Style System?

Thank You
 
None that I know of. I thought Classic had a template for their systems? If not, then you might have to get creative
 
I made a cardboard template from a factory AC unit. The problem is locating the holes accurately against a non-AC firewall. You can get close using photos from web using the fire wall suppliers pics but I’d like to be more accurate. The best case scenario would be to find a AC car without an engine you could measure and find common reference points.
 
I’m going to take some dimensions / make a template this weekend if it works out. I tried taking measurements on a car with the a/c unit installed and I wasn’t comfortable hacking into my firewall with those dimensions. The car I’m looking at this weekend is an a/c car with no a/c unit installed just a bare firewall. I’ll let you know if it happens.

A/C

MM1979 - 1968-70 Dodge, Plymouth B-Body; Firewall Panel; with AC; EDP Coated
 
Is this a clinker? I do not know if B bodies are like A bodies, but for A bodies, aftermarket A/C units are for non A/C cars, because the firewalls are different. You would have to make a filler for the unit if it was a factory A/C car. So before you go copying an A/C car, you should find out. I'm thinking that they are different.
 
i bought the classics system and it came with a templet for the fire wall . i cut my dash in my 69 runner and made it look factory BUT the air flow is not quit enough to me.
