Freon for old TT AC

Hi. I have an old 70s TT. The ACblows cold, but not ice cold. I'm worried it won't be enough for our June Florida trip. My RV repair guy told me it was going to be tough to find more Freon since it's been outawed. I don't know anything about this. Not sure what I should do. replacing is too expensive right now. Anyone know about this?

    Your RV repir guy is correct PLUS RV A/C units were never built to be serviced so you would be paying him to solder in the fill valves.
    That, plus the "Gray" market price of R12 at over $100/lb (if he can find any) may well run you close to the price of a new unit.
