Re: '42 Clipper Eight with Air Conditioning - photo documentation

Flackmaster, If you or West do have a Clipper bracket -- or have any other not commonly seen prewar Clipper AC components -- would you post a few photos before any find a new home. The prewar AC parts and service articles do not show much if any Clipper detail info. It would be nice to document some of the differences between the conventional body cars.

Aside from the compressor bracket and dash switch, there may also be some differences with the evaporator case and inner components to accommodate the return air flow. I believe there are different shapes and body structures behind and under the rear seats that makes the air entry point different. It would be much appreciated if Tom could post photos of that portion when he gets around to disassembly on the car.
