Default Suggestions for ac in 63 SWC

Looking for any suggestions or comments for installing an air conditioner in a 1963 SWC.

While my engine runs cool--- it gets hot inside the vehicle.

AC Seller documents indicate it is an easy installation--- as well as modification to glove compartment.

Comments are appreciated.

I added Vintage Air A/C to my split window in 4 days (the system most use) by myself.....
I wouldn't say its "easy"...on a scale of 1-10 I'd say its a 4 (with 10 being the hardest)...

Here are the tips I developed for 63 cars that go above and beyond the kit instructions:
