Where can I get adapters to use my old evaporator and its male flare fittings with new-style hoses using O-ring fittings?
I'm piecing together an AC system from the old aftermarket setup and some new components. I like the old under-dash unit, and would like to keep it.
I've found sort of the reverse of what I need - adapters that allow the use of compressors having O-ring fittings and the older flare hoses.

I have never seen adapters for this, but you can get old flare style fittings that crimp onto the new barrier hose. It will not cost any more than putting together a new style hose. You can even go with the modern fittings on the under hood side and the flares for the evaporator side, really whatever you might need is out there.
