Thank you everyone!!!
Bill, I did some checking on eBay, found a good price on a used manual, it's on the way.
Paul, I'll start looking for R-12 and I'll keep Classic Auto Air in mind for parts and rebuilds.
Pete, thanks for the heads up on prices. I sure hope I end up closer to the $200 than $2000 and I'm sure my wife will too!!!!
Bernie, when I mentioned maybe going to a Vintage Air unit he began explaining why he would not recommend it. Lots of modification and fabrication. He also said he thinks the compressor may be OE based on the tags/labels. He knew where to get it rebuilt.
Again, THANK YOU EVERYONE!!!
I really appreciate the advice and quickness of getting it to me.
