    I am installing a 302 into a 71' Grabber that was a 6 Cylinder car.
    It is not an A/C car, does anyone make unit I can put on this car,
    I have looked at Vintage Air, with no luck. Help

    There are no direct fit (made for Mavericks) kits, unless you can find an NOS under dash unit.

    If you don't mind the look go with under dash air.

    If you want a factory set up, you will need all the parts. I have all the parts. Email me directly (see below) if I can help.

    I don't mind if it is a small under dash unit, as long as it works good and looks ok

    Check out "RAINBOW PRODUCTS" out of North Carolina, they might have everything you need to do a conversion...prices are VERY reasonable compared to the rest of the aftermarket...
