<br>
I'm planning to move to Phoenix next year. Just got back from a 2 week <br>
trip to visit family. I grew up there, and after 20 years in the Navy <br>
I'm ready to move back and settle down.<br>
<br>
When I do go through with this, it will be a body off resto/install, so <br>
I'll have the opportunity to run hoses and such proper. A friend of <br>
mine is working on putting a 923 transaxle in his Fastback and has made <br>
some creative modifications to the tunnel such as access panels that is <br>
inspiring. I know this crowd is mostly stock(ish) and just wanted to <br>
find a source for the evap unit to keep the aesthetics right.<br>
