Well if there is no CHARGE to the A/C lines then you can remove the lines for the Pump, condenser (little radiator thing) and Lines them self.

I was thinking of doing the same!

yea a thirty year old A/C that still had charge would be awesome lol but it had no charge and ive already took the compresser out and just lacking the little bottle deal and little radiator. And it really opens up the Bay so you can see all the leaks lol

The AC condenser on my 93 got impaled by a tree branch it took the hit and protected my radiator, you can remove the whole system, condenser in front all aluminum hard lines and the evaporator in ur dash, the recever (aluminum cylinder), the compressor will have to stay. when pulling hard lines up front be sure they are all for the ac, on my 93 their were power steering lines near the recever, but the whole process is straght forward... i replaced the condenser with a heavy duty steel grate to guard the radiator, and the holes for the AC lines thru the fire wall are ready made to run wiring for Accesories... its not hot enough hear for AC and if it was im too cheap!
