How can I tell from a picture of the interior whether the air conditioning on a 65 convertible was original? I was looking at one on e-bay, but it doesn't say if the air is original or after-market.
The unit should have a grey face with a Ford Crown emblem in the center, 4 round chrome registers with an inner/outer plastic circle in each register. There will be 2 knobs for temp and fan speedtoward the center below the registers. There are Falcon and Fairlane units that look very similar, and you would need to see the back to tell the difference. One more thing, on the passenger side, there should be an ugly black steel panel to hide the drain hose about 9" long from the carpet to the side of the unit.
