Help wanted with broken ac

I have a 74 dart sport with a 360. Ac does not work and I don’t know why, mixed with the vinyl seat it can be one hell of a sauna in there during the summer. With ac turned to max the clutch seems to grab then stop every 5 seconds or so, turns about half a rotation then stops again. Anyone have answers?
