Not to be too much of a nitpicker, but I'm fairly sure that you didn't
understand exactly what he wrote.  He never said that the 64 & 65 FC's had air
conditioning.  What he said is that the 64 & 65 cars with air conditioning
might have had a PCV Valve.
Upon checking the 1964 assembly manual, I refer you to page 1964-189.  Oil
bath air cleaner - pre cleaner with air conditioning.  Issued 10/03/63 and
cancelled 12/06/63.  On this page it does show a valve as number 12.  It is
possible that there were some factory built with this combination.   I do have
in my collection a oil bath air cleaner assembly that looks exactly like the
one pictured, but I don't have any idea of the application that it came off
of.  It might have been a 1965 AC car since it also used the same condenser
and air cleaner assembly as the 1964 cars with AC.
Now, I will refer you to page 1965-182 which clearly shows the PCV Valve with
the C 4 option.

Paul in CT.....
Now I turn your attention to page 1964V-226.  It also clearly shows a PCV
Valve as item # 3.  I don't have a 1965 FC assembly manual, so I was not able
to check that one.

  Not to be too much of a nitpicker, but I'm fairly sure there's no such
  thing as a factory FC with A/C (I suspect Lon's fingers got ahead of
  him :-).  Or was that from an eBay description?  :-)
