Ferrari Mailing List: 308 A/C repairs

[Rick Lindsay (rolindsay]

Hello Friends,

I am looking for the correct, generic replacement part
for my '79 308GTB's A/C receiver-drier.  I have found
a source for NEW York compressors (US$315) so I can
rebuild my A/C without conversion to a modern
compressor.  Yea, I can already sense the testarone in
the air.  "Take the damn thing off like a real man. 
It's just dead weight."  But I live in Houston, Texas
where we have two seasons; Summer and Almost Summer. 
And the 308 has a greenhouse for a cockpit.  If the
A/C doesn't work, I don't drive the car.

So back to the theme-topic.  Any of you done A/C work
recently who could direct me toward a parts supplier? 
Thanks.
