IML: Rear A/C; why?

["Wm. R. Ulman" <twolaneblacktop@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have been know to drive around with the top down, and A/C on full blast.
Works great in the South!

   I'm probably a statistical outlier here, but in my '62 & '63 (and
undoubtedly in my '69 if I ever manage to get the A/C fixed) I _loved_
driving around on hot days with some or all of the windows down and the air
conditioning blasting. If it had been hot enough, and I had like-minded rear
seat passengers, then the rear A/C unit would have allowed this activity,
when the front A/C alone would not. I've never had dual A/C, so I haven't
been able to try.

   The standard air conditioning in these cars is incredibly powerful, but I
don't know if it's strong enough to cool the back seat on a hot day, with
the windows open.
