300SD AC condenser

Sometime in late 1984 the 300SD AC condenser was upgraded to a more efficient design with more tubes. The ugraded one works well with R134. The earlier 80-84 condensers are pretty useless with R134.

I have been searching and all the suppliers show the 81-85 to all be the same part. Some of the pictures shown reveal it is the earlier design.

Looks like its a crap shoot what you'll get.

Anyone purchased a 85 300SD condenser and received the good one?
