Looking at a Caddy trunk mounted Air conditioner, do not remember the brand off hand. I believe the car is a'56 and am looking for some guidance on what it may be worth. If it would cover my next trip to the savage yard, perhaps I will grab it... And sure, I expect that condition is everything.

If it is factory I believe it is a Frigidaire system but because of the air return and distribution routing the trunk evaporator section will only fit a Cadillac without doing extensive mods. There are also fender air scoops which have Cadillac specific styling and probably air vents above the headliner. Because of that I would think their forums would be the best place to ask a value question.

If it is aftermarket such as ARA, NOVI, or any of the half dozen other brands then value would depend on completeness and condition. Parts are sometimes hard to find if not all but non existent for those old units. If something significant is missing or not repairable that would affect value.
