I was curious if anyone has rebuilt a factory compressor. If so, what are the difficulties?

I successfully rebuilt mine about 35 years ago. No special tools were required except the homemade oil level dipstick, and I followed the Shop Manual procedures. I replaced the valve plate, gaskets and crankshaft seal & carbon ring. I had no piston or cylinder damage, so I didn't have to go any further. If you can find the parts that you need, its not a bad job at all.
