Aircon heater blower

I am having my factory integrated HZ air con completely rebuilt at the moment.

The following is new:

Blower motor
a6 compressor
heater core
POA valve
Expansion valve
Receiver dryer
vacuum pods
Striped vacumm hoses (switch to vacuum pods)
new engine bay hoses
new wiring harness
New circuit breaker

The following are being reconditioned as i could not find any correct new ones:

Condensor
Condensor fan
air ducts
brackets
RHS vent blanking plate
Relay

The blower motor came from "old air products" in the US. It is a direct replacement for the HZ air con style one. I will get the part number tomorrow and post it up. If i recall correctly, it came from a 72 camaro or there abouts.

Thanks Kris282. Will be very interested to see what the part number is for your blower. BTW, that's an epic A/C overhaul, is it part of a resto project?

No probs. I will find the number tomorrow. I wil also try to find part numbers for most of the other parts. You can still find a lot of the parts, mainly in the US. Either NOS, refurbed or repros.

Yes, it is one small part of a full resto. I debated over original vs vintage air for a long time. In the end, i wanted to keep everything looking original but also wanted it to blow cold air! I know the harrison style air con gets very mixed reviews. I am hoping that as it is essentially all new, it should work fairly well. If this thing doesnt cool the van down, an original style one never did.

Sounds good, cheers for that. Understand making the factory air new again, it will look just right. I'm going down the same road, but chose to set up a Sanden compressor down low on the drivers side of the engine (VN - VT style). Should work good but it forced me to get rid of my original power steering box and fit rack and pinion steering to accommodate it.
