Anyone have underhood pics of a '69 with A/C? Need to see the condenser,

[Dino]

As I mentioned here I'm looking for a new condenser.  http://www.dodgecharger.com/forum/index.php/topic,91794.0.html

I am unsure of what hooks up to the ds hard line, I can only assume it's the expansion valve.  Can someone with an original A/C system post a few pictures of what goes where?  I have the original condenser which is shot.  First owner cut the lines instead of taking the two minutes to actually disconnect it so I don't knwo what goes where.  A pic of the dryer mounting bracket would be great as well.

Thanks!

Chris you rock!  Those help a lot. 

I don't recall seeing the dryer bracket in any of the boxes so I'll have to find one of those. 

I didn't think the hardline coming from the ds went all the way to the condenser like that.  I'm afraid to go look at mine now, I don't know if it was unbolted or cut so I may have to buy anothe rhard line.  Where's the expansion valve?  Is it between carb and firewall?

When I put my condenser back in, just to make sure it was the correct one, I realized that it's pretty much blocking the entire radiator.  I know the air travels through the condenser but still.  Ever notice any rise in temp when you installed the condenser?

Thanks again!

Terrible the way they overheat with a condensor in the way (kidding)

When you decide not to fit the A/C, call me, ill take it

Ive been looking for years for the right parts

The Suction & discharge lines are one year only 69 & big block specific.

The other liquid hard line that runs on the pass fender will interchange from small to big block (and I believe is reproduced but with the "wrong" fittings on it)

The discharge hose is one piece (rubber/metal)

I also hard lined a transmission cooler in front of all that as well with no cooling issues

Heres a pic from the FSM (which I recommend you getting one if you dont have one)

Looks great Chris -     I might have a line on 1969 Big Block A/C lines out here on the coast - waiting for a reply...
