    Cool

    I have not seen any around for a least 10 years. Even the old cars don't use it anymore.

    Maybe find someone working on old coke machines and drop your price? Just a thought. Everyone I know has already switched to the blends.

    I have actually run out of R12, as some of the walkins that I work on run with R12. I'd like to make you an offer but due to the UK/US customs and the restriction of virgin use of R12, I don't think pressurised gas would even get out of the US let alone into the UK without expensive documentation and all the other billy hoo.

    Good luck with the sale anyway.
    You don't get owt for nowt.

    Cheers ah kid

    I actually have a collector car (Delorean) that still has R12 in it. I may be interested if the price is right. Where are you located?

    (edit).. Just noticed you are in Ohio.. How would you ship? I am in South Florida.

    If you still have it, let me know. I would be interested in talking to you about buying it.

    I still have over 300 lbs. I even have a few small 1 lb cans when small cans were 1 pounders. I still run across automotive uses and at the Sheriff's office there is a reach in that the School board could not fins the leak. That was 10 years ago; they gave the SO the unit. I found the leak and put R12 back in it. It worked well for8 yrs and then the evap went south. I replaces the evap and it is still doing A OK.
