I'm at the stage of my build where I can start selling items I will definitely not be using. I'm finding that the A/C parts don't have a large following on eBay. There aren't a bunch of parts and when there is, they don't sell. I have the compressor, the Astro Ventilation box as well as all the brackets, wiring, etc. Any opinions on whether I should bother posting, packing and shipping?etc. Thanks.

Some pics of the compressor for reference:

I have 2 complete AC systems from cars that I have installed VA systems and I can't give them away! So they just lay on the shelf with a bunch of other Camaro stuff, how about those front drum brakes or manual steering boxes and we can't forget the column shifter steering column!!!!

Well that matches my experience! OK. Not worth the effort. I think I'm going to just put everything out for recycling. Tired of carrying all this dead weight. I posted my complete set of seatbelts and I will be posting as set of dark green headrests. That should gather some interest. Gotta fund the build.

Thanks for the input.

I have 3 sets. Hard to find a home for them. There is some demand for compressor brackets since they are often removed and chucked when guys hot rodded these cars years ago...

I usually give parts like that a few weeks on Craigslist with a low price as it's not worth shipping something that heavy. If they don't sell I will reduce the price to free just because I hate to scrap parts that someone might need down the road. Someone will usually take them for free to collect dust in THEIR garage.

OK, you just answered my question.
I have a complete, working, untouched, stock whole 1969 system.
I'll just box it up and put it in the attic.
