If it was pre-vanagon, I would suspect the coils were for an oil cooler, rather than AC. Although, you never know... -Gregg Carlen 85 Westy (Cold AC in the overhead cabinet) -----Original Message----- From: Blake C.

Driving around salt lake last week I saw a nice bus (pre vanagon) but am not familar enough to know the year. Anyhow, it had one of the pop-tops that hinges on the drivers side of the bus. The really unusual thing was he had what looked like air conditioner coils mounted on the top rear of the bus with pipes coming down and entering the engine compartment somewhere. So, it must be possible to mount everything in unconventional places. blake SLC 84 westy On Mon, 6 Mar 2000, Todd Kaderabek wrote: > If a westfalia has factory air conditioning, there is only one place it will > be, right?
