Default Looking to install a/c on my 69 camaro soon. Whats the best kit to install?

I have a non a/c car that I'm starting to put together and need to find a a/c kit that's reliable, cold and comes complete... and the best place with the best price to buy it at...

Thanks

Vintage Air is the best.

I have vintage air - Gen IV on my 67 Camaro. Vintage air doesn't have a wide selection of vents, but Restomodair has some nice vents. http://www.restomodair.com/ I never tried out the vents, but I like the design of the vents as compared to vintage air.

I was researching the same thing a couple months ago, after talking to two separate places who installed systems from each company. Im told classic auto air is a better system

I have heard the same thing. It seems the majority of the feedback on multiple forums is in favor of the Classic Air. My only hesitation on buying the Classic Air perfect fit system is that the heater hoses come through the firewall behind the RH valvle cover and I don't want that.
