Someone else will most likely beat me to the punch, but why not fix it?
Compressors and condensing coils often fail, but the evaporator is well
protected in the cab of the car. Parts are readily available from Rusty's
and repairs are relatively simple. However if you do decide to fix it, you
should definitely have a reputable shop evacuate/pressure test/ and charge
the system, especially if you stick with R-12.
On the other hand, I've seen a lot of junk on EBay, I certainly would not
hesitate to put an evaporator/blower unit out there.
My 64 Monza also came with A/C. I was a foolish kid at the time and swapped
the entire system for a 150 turbo, which ended up sitting in a box until I
finally threw it away. I really wish I had kept the A/C unit instead.

Hello all,
I have some a/c parts out of my '64. Namely the evaporator and
enclosure, fan, and the control console that mounts under the radio. Are
they worth putting on ebay or should I chuck 'em? By the way, no I'm not one
of those people that hates a/c. When I bought the car the compressor and
condensor were already gone. I figured all of that other stuff could go.
