First take it to someone who can identify if your car ever had air, there is a good chance that it did since 45000 of the 49000 77's produced had air. If it doesn't then check with Hot Rod Air at http://www.hotrodair.com or Vintage Air at http://www.vintageair.com/vintage.htm
I think either place can provide you with the kit to install air in your car or direct you to a installer to install the kit.
If your car did come with air, it would probably be cheaper to repair what is already there. Take it to an airconditioning specialist for an evaluation.
