We have them, for $319 brand new with clutch (not rebuilt).  From mid '87 on
this is an SD709.  Mid '86 thru very early '87 can use an SD510, and some
very early '86's used the SD508 that was found on '83-1/2 to '85.  So if you
have an '86-87 you should check the numbers on your old compressor before
ordering.  One final note: the SD709's are getting very scarce new, and the
distributor is stocking up on cores so that they can switch to rebuilt when
new supplies are depleted.  So if you order an SD709, the distributor will
subsequently send you a UPS pickup tag for the return of your old unit at
their expense. (If you do not return it they levy a core charge.)
