The a/c system isn't going to work too well if you take it out of the car... it needs refrigerant which will be discharged at removal.

I'm interested in the AC system, I just picked up a 78 280z and it is missing the AC compressor and the lines I think. Give me a call at 702-265-2134. I don't usually go to bed until midnight or so.

Here some pics of the engine bay, I'm not really sure what's missing because I'm not too familiar with Z's.











Here's a pic of the car. It was painted pretty recently, I thought I good a good deal on it for $1700. A guy in town was restoring it but past away and didn't get to complete it. The family sold his house and didn't want the car. The interior is in good shape but none of the gauges work and the switch for the headlights takes about 10 tries before the lights come on. Also there is a vaccum leak I need to find somewhere.

Cronicus

well it looks like you need everything man, luckly i got it as long as you stil have the fittings on the firewall. ive enclosed a pic below that should help better understand where these fittings are. also i enclosed a pic "realy pictures of you pics" better explaning where the backet to mount the compressor should be, if you dont have it i do.

Ok sounds good, I just got off work so I'll probably take pics and upload them tomorrow morning.

Cronicus

ok so here are the pics of the ac fittings on the firewall "to the left of the brake booster" and the compressor mounting bracket "directly below the throttlebody per say, mounted to the engine block.

Cronicus

ok folks its going up on ebay soon so keep your eyes out....

Cronicus

o duh i forgot to meniton to everone "whitch might have kept sum from buying this" when the compressor was pulled of after the refigreant was discharged obviously, i filled the lines coming of the compresor, into the compresor with a 3m all pourpse lube, a relativly leight weight lube to keep the seals inside fresh and avoid them from cracking and drying out, then caped the lines. this was the suggestion from a fellow mechanic i know if i was going to store this compresor till it sold.
anyhow its going on ebay in about a week if no 1 else is interested..
