Just bought a 76' 280z... AC's out.

The AC needs to be recharged, needs some sort of older fluid that isn't made anymore.

Any ideas where i can get this from?

Welcome to ZDriver!

The fluid is called "R12 FREON". Legally you must have a license to work on freon systems, but "technically" you can just buy a recharge kit from ebay and do it yourself (if you know what you are doing).

Well shoot, check Craigslist. A few days ago someone here was offering R12 at $10 a can.
