[Aerovette]

Yeah, I called "the guy" and apparently he wants me to finance his summer vacation trip. $2500.00 to install an evaporator coil that I can buy for $320.00.

So I will BE the guy on this one. I'm going to DIY it. Shut the high side off at the condenser, run the pump a SHORT time and shut the low side off.

De-solder the coil and slide it out (goes in like a drawer).
Slide the new one in and attach.
Draw vacuum on the coil and lines and make sure there are no leaks, and then open the condenser back up.

What could go wrong?

I have literally NOTHING to lose if it works. If it doesn't, I only need to evacuate and refill assuming no leak.
