Dave, in addition to your main interests on the car hope you are able to get decent pictures or an idea of the workings on the rest of the AC setup. Looks like only two blower switches so apparently no temp control. Also they are in the front so if that's a limo, nothing for the passenger to play with??

What is interesting to me is it doesn't appear they went thru the package shelf for any of the cold air supply or return like a typical trunk unit would have done. Looks like supply ducts go under to somewhere and return is a question.
Would be very curious where things come out. Maybe vents are up on the sides of the quarter section somewhere -- or go all the way to front?? Return under the seat??

Don't see a reference to Comfo-Aire or Toledo on that list of the main aftermarket suppliers of the day--although what is seen looks very similar to pictures posted earlier of the NOVI unit built for S-P.
