I'd agree with Charlie if I were to keep the car. <br>
<br>
If you have a buyer, I would ask him what his preference is as their
may be a desire for a stock installation that trumps the benefits of
a front mounted condenser.<br>
<br>
As a seller, you may be better going to the stock location as I
doubt any buyers would view that as a negative element of their
buying decision while someone looking for a car that they could
easily revert back to stock in the future may see it as a negative.
My point being that your universe of buyers may be larger with stock
location.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I have another potential
buyer for my Pantera, this time in the UK. The sticking
point right now is that the car currently has no A/C
installed and he would like to have it. So, I am trying to
get him an estimate on parts cost and have come across the
issue of front or rear mount systems.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Essentially, my car is
stripped of any A/C parts. All I have is the rear fan and
shroud and the stock evaporator installed under the dash.
So, my question is; if you were to install a system in your
Pantera, which way would you go, front or rear mount?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">It would seem to me that
a front mount system would be much cleaner looking,
especially since my engine bay is highly detailed, but I
don’t know if there is a bunch of cutting and hacking or any
modifications that need to be done to install it.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
