GE air from GJ Wagon

any thoughts on transferring factory air conditioning from a GJ wagon to a GE Sedan? if it were a GJ Sedan, I wouldn't even try, but since the Wagons used the same body all the way through, I thought it might have a good chance of fitting.

Roof Lining GE SE

I have a low mileage GE SE Sigma sedan, Interior is perfect, except the roof lining is starting to sag. The car is very original with less than thirty thousand Ks on the clock.

Bought this last week, its an auto. Apparently one owner, though I never met him.. It was sitting in a workshop having been knocked back for rego... a little loose in the left front suspension and some oil leaks. the colapsing drivers seat would probably rank a mention too. http://img834.imageshack....
