Hi Guys i am finally getting around to redoing my 69 olds 442 4 speed with A/C . I have bought a pile of parts of a couple suppliers but i am looking for a A/C compressor as mine just quit!
I have seen a couple from OPG and other suppliers but I am hoping to find one that look original! Can anyone rebuild these?
any help would be appreciated!!

 

Yes, those compressors are rebuildable. I don't know if there's anyone close to you, though. We have a place here in town (AAPAK) and I'm sure others will know of rebuilders that can maintain the original look of your compressor.

 

Hi Ken
I did call them but he said they don't rebuild just reseal them if leaking. but thanks a bunch for the info!!

 

Here's what an original


'69 compressor looks like per the Frigidaire sticker with the part number and date code. I just had mine rebuilt by Old Air Products, 1201 Forum Way S, Fort Worth TX 76140,phone 817-531-2665 and go to "sales". They did a good job with a turnaround time of about 3 months. What I liked is that they retained the sticker for originality and it appears the compressor works as it should. I just got it back in and charged a month ago so the real test won't come until summer but, for now, it blows nice cold air on R134.

 

That is exactly what mine looks like! I will try Old air products today! do they repaint them or just rebuild?
Thanks so much for the info i really wanted to keep it as original as possible.
