A/C whats wrong, switch lights up and then nothing, you know the fan needs to be on at the same time? Do you have the climate control type, slider has numbers not colours on it and an Auto selection.
Hot/Cold box should work independant of the main A/C (although still part of it).
Maybe just requires a regass? Get a proper A/C check over who will do CO2 checks before using any coolant gas. No need to convert drop in gas available that uses the old outlawed R12 gas that these buses came over with.

Front brakes dead easy and the pipe should be off the shelf at any decent motor factors.

Have a look at WWW.TOWNACE.COM for loads of information on the Town/MasterAce
