I am thinking from the point of view that putting the intercooler in front of the condenser will be similar to blocking the condenser in static commercial applications with the airborn debris that tends to collect on the condenser,thus reducing airflow,and therefore heat transfer.
yes and yes

they can't be - it's impossible

yes they are small compared to modern cars - but R12 systems were more efficient and needed less condensing capacity compared to R134a
are you speaking from experience from new? or nowadays with perhaps a low refrigerant charge, a dirty condenser, the correct refrigerant etc?
