Hi all,
Wondering if anyone has any advice on purchasing a Mondial. I'm looking at a 1987 with 23000 miles for $25,000.
Other than getting it inspected is there anything specific I should be looking at or generall issues with that year?
 
Thanks a bunch!

Rick

If my memory serves me right, the condenser is on the front passenger side corner, separate and away from the radiator.  Also, it has its own fan.  I do not believe by removing it will make any difference on your radiator cooling.  If anything you would remove some weight J.  Worth the effort, your call but if you or a future owner ever you should ever what AC this could be very helpful.  Just a thought……

On the 308s, the Condenser is the 'mini-radiator' that is in-front-of the real radiator - is this also where the 328 Condenser is located?  Removing a Condenser involves the removal of the radiator (they are bolted together).  On a 328, you have puller fans, the radiator, then the condenser?  You may just wantt leave it - digging it out would be a chore, and there's a line that runs through a fender to an area just below your windshield you'd have to trace and remove.

After years of paying out money and struggling with my A/C, I finally
took off the compressor.  It works fine, I just had too many leaks
for it to work right.  Anyone interested in a compressor?
Now that I no longer have the compressor hooked up, I would like to
take off the condenser.  Anyone take one of those off?  If so, what
does it take to take off the compressor.  I suppose that with that
off, it will also help with the cooling.  Thanks.
Jim
