Thank you for all your replies regarding my 240 hunt! I have found a few finds, mostly all have no working AC, and I am wondering about the possibility of recharging the existing R-12 (think that's right, the old one) AC system.
I am in metro Los Angeles, and there are many good Volvo shops around here, however, I am unsure how this all works with the environmental laws. I get the freon myself and then try and find a mechanic who will work on it? Or will they most likely want to do conversion? Is this supposed to be clandestine and under the table or something? Should I make a trip to Mexico? This all assumes that a recharge is all these cars need, which could be utter blind faith but I am curious anyway. Thanks!
