Why should you discuss the conditions of a AC retrofit be discussed with the customer first?
The reason that we go in great detail concerning any retrofit is so that the customer knows what is being done, why its being done and why the price is high...... I see a lot of vehicles that have been done incorrectly meaning from cross contaminated to either undercharged or a lot of the time overcharged and the customer has no idea what was done... There are places in my hometown that will retrofit any vehicle for $149.95 and you can bet that they are cross contaminated, you cannot do a retro for that price so that is why the customer needs to know everything up front.........

I believe that the Dodge Dynasty's were all R-12 A/C systems. If yours was a 1993 or older model you will need to retrofit your A/C system to the R-134a systems. There are a lot of retrofit kits on the market that makes it easy for individuals to do it themselves.

If you're trying to retrofit one into a 1930s car, it could be done... you'd probably want a system which used a electronically actuated AC compressor, rather than a belt driven one, since the AC compressor, when engaged, is a parasitic drain on the engine. As for 1930s cars coming with them, it wasn't until 1939 that the first automotive AC system was available in a car.
