Post by DDfab »

Just picked up my vintage air set up with dakota digital controller. Also bought a 2003 f150 seat assembly for the 70 f100.
Now to just get this thing finished

i knew i should have put up pics. need to take some.
it will be awhile before its all complete. wanted to get the air set up now, that way i could get my new firewall done and the dash vents cut before paint and such.
its a gen 2 set up from them that is compact.
new firewall is just to clean up the factory one. to many holes and bumps for the clean look I am after.
Plan on being done by June. Working O/T out the rear to make sure I dont run out of cash again before its done.
LOL, Like that could ever happen on a project.
Will get some updated pics when i get it back on the ground

pic of controller, not very good one though. it is polished.
just a box of parts now. got a chrome compressor upgrade and sutff. compressor isnt here yet. got billet vents also. i will polish them before install.
Seats are just cloth now. i am only using the pad and frame work etc.
Will recover to match interior

If you don't mind me asking, what is the dakota digital controller?

instead of having the typical sliders for controlling the heat and a/c. this one is all digital with push buttons for the climate controls
here is a better pic.
