Re: [Chrysler300] a/c

["Terry & Andree Hoeman" <tehoema@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

First off Rich Barber just sent me a copy of an email from Gill Cunningham 
and he has found documentation for 12 55 300's originally equipped with AC. 
Three of them are currently known to be in existence.

I have seen a 55 or 56 wagon with AC hung over the rear window.  It was a 
unit specifically fitted to the roof.  I expected it was factory at the time 
but no proof of course and no idea where the car is now.  I'm thinking it 
was a 56 Chrysler.  It belonged to Al Krenzien in Norfolk Ne.   He only had 
about 300 Chryslers and Desotos at the max and very few left when he sadly 
passed away a few years back.
