Yeah...most of our hot summer days are in the mid to high 80's, but we do get the occasional stint with temps in the 90's plus, but normally a dry heat and w/o humidity. I still remember the first time I stepped out of a car when we drove down to Atlanta. I about died when I stepped out into that muggy mess of July heat. If I was down there, I'd be sure to have a couple of cars ready to go. A driver car with air perhaps, and a solid lifter car that was built for evening cruises and days when the temps were a bit lower. GM never put a/c into solid lifter cars back in the day, and I think solid lifter cars should always be that way...but that's just me.
I say do what you like with your own car as I have never let other people's feelings get in the way of whatever I want to do with mine. After all, it's gotta float my boat before I'm ever gonna worry about what someone else likes or doesn't like. I'll be following your build thread once you get started.
Cheers
