I had a '62 Galaxie 500 a couple years ago that had the dealer installed "hang-on" unit. It worked fairly well, despite not having an STV valve to regulate refrigerant pressure. It had a temp sensor on the evaporator that would remove voltage to the clutch until the temp went up enough to keep from freezing up.

I have a '73 LTD now with factory air, with the same Tecumseh compressor but with a POA valve for refrigerant regulation. I think Ford must have used York and Tecumseh compressors for years.
