Aftermarket A/C for non A/C car

Has anyone had any experience with any of the aftermarket companies? 1966 Cutlass non air car w/ 455 auto. Early planning ( $$ ) stages and didn't find anything on the topic in the forum search. Thanks

I did a do it yourself kit from Vintage Air. No direct kit exists for 64 to 67 AFAIK. Look at my sig for a link to the install.
Total cost was about $1700. I also made several posts last year describing the process.

I also put together a system from Vintage for my '66 98 conv. The unit I used is probably a little larger than you would use in your car. The one drawback I see is it has no outside air input like a factory unit on MAX air. This would only matter during cooler weather on heat cycle when the windshield tends to steam up. A/C output great on hottest days.

They make a reproduction of the Mark IV underdash air which would be period correct. I think that is what I will put in my 54.
