Vintage appearing AC Compressor for 1960 Cadillac ??

Year: 1960
Make: Cadillac
Model: Fleetwood
Engine Size: 390
Country of Origin: United States

I want to replace the tired R12 system in my 1960 Cadillac with a newer system. The Vintage Aire Gen IV universal seems like a good choice. It can be hidden inside the dash with only vents showing, thus maintaining the original look. But, I really do not like the look of the Sanden 04808 compressor and would like to find something more like the look of the factory air compressor.

The A6 looks something like the factory compressor, and I was hoping I could find something that would fit the original factory brackets, maybe with a little modifications?

Could I match up something that would fit? I can do some fabrication. The Sanden pumps about 8.4 Cubic inches
