Need A/C 1800 1970

I got tired of my 242's OEM system being unable to keep up with southeastern US heat. So I 86'd the entire OEM HVAC system except for the dash vents and bought a universal street rod kit from Classic Auto Air. A bit of fabrication, but it works like a champ.

No idea what the amps/draw is on the type of DC system you're thinking about. Never occurred to me to go all electric....gotta think there's a reason you don't see more of that in cars/trucks.
