AC and Ram Air
Short answer: No true Ram Air car ever got factory A/C — that means 1967–68 Ram Air I, 1968 Ram Air II, and 1969 Ram Air IV cars. But a 1969 400 H.O. (“Ram Air III”) could get A/C with any transmission.
The reason: the 1969 RA III (the 400 H.O. with cold-air induction) was essentially a standard 400 mechanically — no mandatory 3.90, no special heads, 2-bolt mains (the manual RA III did get the 068 cam) — so PMD allowed A/C. Note the year quirk: A/C wasn’t offered with a manual transmission in 1968, though it could be in 1967 and 1969.

Ram Air III Clone would be the ethical description if you are going to resell. Plus records from PHS will list original specs.
