Without AC condenser

I need to remove the AC condenser from my '83 300D due to holes. I do not have a replacement. The AC doesn't work anyway (before the holes).

With the AC condenser removed will I have any unexpected issues?

What ever caused the holes in the condensor will gladly attack the radiator. A condensor is an expensive radiator shield that doubles as an A/C condensing unit.

You mean that mean Mazda 626 will attack my car again?!

The AC condenser is a PITA to remove and (my guess) to reinstall. Radiators are easy to remove and reinstall.

Did nit know it was a Mazda attack. I get holes in the condensors in my cars from the attacking stones and rocks.
