And IIRC the condenser from Advance Auto using a coupon was under $100. Buy on line, use code TRT30 and do in store pick up. As mentioned, if the freon is already gone, replace the part and have it recharged at a shop.

I see you got it after the fact.
Did it come from Sully Sullenberger by any chance?
But then again it would be water damaged too.

That pilot did one hell of a job doing the unthought SAFE water landing
in a plain that was never meant to swim or surf.

I would also check with Ed to see what he can get a real Ford one for.
