I could read the window sticker.  No body side moldings listed.
They must have been added.
What is the contraption in front of the radiator and extra hoses going in the firewall?

I expanded the picture the contraption is an aircraft oil cooler. That thing must fly. :burnout:

@JH27N0B (https://forum.e-bodies.org/mlist/jh27n0b_308) - I bet its a dealer install under dash AC system? I don't see a compressor, but maybe it was removed?

This car is a mess. All the paperwork is a plus though.

I didn't see anything on the dash controls or vents that looked related to a AC addition.
Who knows though.
There's some interesting mods to the dash though to install a tach and gages.  And replace the controls removed with big honking knobs!
I'm planning to head down there next week for a day, I guess I'll get a better look then.

Looking closer at the extra hoses, I see a remotely mounted oil filter on the passenger side inner fender.
Is the contraption to cool the engine oil or trans fluid?
Some very interesting vintage mods done to this car!
