100 problems…then you disappear into the shed for 4 hours and somehow everything feels alright again. 😂🔧

Who else gets this?

Want modern A/C… but prefer to keep your factory-style heater controls?

This conversion makes it possible.

For owners wanting to retain the original heater control appearance while upgrading to a Gen 5 A/C system, these cable conversion kits provide another option to help keep that factory-style feel.

Because no two restorations are ever the same.

Kevin dropped into Retro Spares all the way from WA during a road trip with his mate… in this Ford Fairlane still doing what it was built for. 🚗💨

Camping gear on the back and plenty more kilometres ahead, proving these old classics were made to be driven, not parked up in sheds.

Safe travels Kevin, and thanks for stopping by! 🔧

The new Gen 5 Vintage Air systems are a massive step forward 👌

Smaller units, updated controls, plug and play capability and easier installation options make these systems a game changer for classic builds.

This is why we’re loving the new Gen 5 range at Retro Spares.

Available now through Retro Spares, Australia.

Does anyone else feel like this?

We get asked this all the time…“Do you sell A/C hose kits?” Short answer… yes.

If you’re setting up air con in your build, you don’t want to be chasing fittings, guessing hose lengths, or piecing it all together.

This kit gives you what you need in one go.
Hoses, fittings, dryer. Built to work together.

Makes the job easier. Gets you closer to turning the key.

Brake hose won’t bend where it needs to?

We see this all the time. Aftermarket hose looks right… but once it’s in the car, it’s too short, too stiff, or just won’t flex how it needs to. That’s exactly what this customer ran into.

Instead of trying to force it to fit, we remade the hose to the correct length with the right amount of flex so it actually works with the setup, not against it.

In this video, you’ll see how we take the original hose and recreate it properly in-house.

If your brake hose isn’t fitting right, don’t work around it. Fix it properly.

👉 We can remake brake hoses to suit your setup
👉 Built to the correct length and fittings
👉 Send us your sample or specs
