Sexiest...you need to recharget the system. Find the low side port (first convert the system to 134 if needed...just buy the valves and screw them onto the r12 ones), then charge the system.

your evaporator (the radiator inside the car) is broken and the air went out there. You'relucky you didn't catch a core troath. you need to pay $$$$$$$ to get replaced, since some of the dash needs to be removed, and all the stuff about it. then it needs to ve vacumed for air, the dryer needs to be replaced since it was opened. Aprox 400$ if cheap. and if yo uened r12 to r134 conversion, that too.
