Post subject:  Name That Part
From my '68 Dart 270. I took this part and its mounting bracket off the car years ago and just ran across them again. I think it's part of the a.c. system. Once I confirm this, I'm going to post it to the Buy/Sell board (at shipping cost), so let me know if you're interested. I also have the dealer a.c. hang on unit, but the rest of the system I got rid of years ago.

Thanks.

Okay, while you're at it let me know if you know why those images above weren't posting. Here are links instead.

Yes, that is part of the A/C system. That is the receiver drier. It is the part that has the sight glass so you can look and see if there are bubbles in the system.

The bracket is still usable. The filter-dryer is now scrap metal. That's because it's been left open to the air for (way, far) longer than a brief moment. It contains a dessicant which has now become saturated by atmospheric moisture. Using this dryer in an A/C system would be a sure-fire recipe for costly system damage and failure.

Oh. Well then, I'll do away with the canister. Thanks, gents.
