Default 1978 ac

I'm new to this forum, and first time Corvette owner. Car is in the shop for thorough check over, all fluids changed ect. Car had factory ac, but was removed during rebuild. I'm looking for a complete ac system. I can find units up to 1976, such as Vintage Air, but nothing for '78. Any ideas? Thanks for any help, Mike.

You can go to local parts house and buy all the ac parts for a reasonable price. It will work real well. I have the original ac in my 80 and it will get cold and keep her happy... Easy and it is all set for this system. Compresser and dryer. Easy deal....
