    Ducktail and rear condenser

    I have an 87 coupe that is slowly being partially backdated, and I really like the ducktail look, but living here in South Florida, A/C is definitely requisite (especially after having upgraded my A/C with Griffith's Kuehl parts); it felt like close to 100 the other day. Have any of you put a rear condenser onto a ducktail? If so, any tips on attachement points, any photos? Is it even possible? Advice is much appreciated. Thanks...Serge
    Some photos of Veronica...she has approx. 61,000 miles on her.

    David, thank you for the photo. The center piece looks home made. Did you have any problems fitting it? Are you using stock nuts and bolts on the sides of the condenser? Thanks in advance

    that center piece is all that holds it in. it's the VOA dealer installed A/C. I've replaced the condenser once but used the same mounting system. been that way for over 30 years and fits nice and tight against the lid. i'm not at home until the weekend, if you need more detailed shots let me know.
