Hi,

In preparation for the restoral of my '71 ragtop. I've been considering
installation of after-market air.  I have a few questions I hope you guys
can answer for me:

1.  I've heard that Hot Rod Air has a good kit.  Are any other
Vette-specific options available?  

2.  Will an aftermarket system blow hard and cold enough to keep the inside
of a ragtop cool?  

3.  Does it integrate into the existing heater somehow, or does it have
it's own blower unit?  

4.  How difficult are they to install?  

5.  If I chose to have a mechanic install one, about how much should I
expect to pay?  What about going to a local shop that specializes in
after-market AC unit installs?

6.  From what I can tell, the unit itself, w/o install seems to be around
$1000.  Is that about average for such units?

Many thanks guys.

Looks like their tailor-made units are only designed for '67 and down.

Thanks anyway.
