Title: 67 a/c condensor ID
Post by: preaction on January 31, 2016, 07:09:52 PM

Are a/c condenser's different between 67 and 68 ? I realize this one has the holes in the bracket down the side but they are a little different from one that was posted here.

Can't offer an option - haven't studied the subject.

The only thing currently I can offer is that a Feb 68 MPC shows that C7ZZ-19712-A was being used to service both 67 and 68 factory AC condensors at that time

Jeff, does a condenser usually have a engineering number on it ?

I have always seen the same type used for 67/68. The type with the holes in the straps. i have seen the engineering number ink stamped and on a sticker label.I believe the ink stamp was more typical assemblyline correct.

Thanks Bob and Jeff, I was leaning towards the pics I posted as being a 67 unit but as we learn there is not always a engineering number to fall back on. The only clue I have is it was in the car when I got it and the car had its correct number and date code radiator. I didn't realize how far and few the a/c cars were. Were there any 67 GT500's  built with a/c ?

Yes GT350 and GT500 both. It was a rare option on a 67 Shelby.

That is an AFTERMARKET condensor for 67-68, surprised nobody caught that earlier

They did. The conversation was carried on off line.

There are variations on condensers but I don't think its 67/68 thing just vendor change.
