Someone will talk about the evil servo. i have seen some 75 cars with the dreaded automatic climate control with the evil servo, and some with the plder manual system.

How can you tell?

Does it have a big square control with several buttons stacked in a vertical row? This with a wheel to the left is the automatic.

The maual has one large twist know with levers on both sides. This is the setup to hope for.
