Those old air conditioners are great! I have a 28,000 BTU 240 v. Sears refrigerated window unit in the living room, appears to be from the 60's or early 70's, it was left out in the barn by the previous owners. We brought it in and hooked it up...works great. It does use a lot of electricity though!
Also bought one of those remote control AC units to add supplemental cooling to the bedroom... The air does not feel as cold as the older unit, although it can do a competent job of cooling the room if the door is closed.
My old Grand Marquis with R-12 used to have ice cold AC until 2 years ago...compressor seals went out, so it's drive with the windows down time now! I was looking a 1970 Lincoln recently that appears to have a much more substantial AC compressor. There was no battery on it so I couln't check the AC performance, it would be great if it still worked.
