I went to see vintage air in Brisbane only for them to tell me they only deal with there dealers and they made a few recommendations on who to use in hervey bay so I went and saw bruce and he sorted it out , made the compressor bracket and all as I said they did a very neat job , overall it took 9 weeks but they were only working on it between other jobs I should photograph the fuse relay panel they made very neat , also had all new gauges installed , stereo ,amplifier , etc

hey john, that was i who was asking about the air-con system. Nice and tidy, cant wait to see it when the dash is complete. What did it cost for all the components.
Businesses wonder why they go broke hey, when they will only do trade enquiries. A while back i was looking for a nut and bolt place, found 3 in my area, and none would sell to the public, trade only. Eventually found a company close to me, he is the only one that sells to the public, probably why all the rest are going out of business.
