the AC on those was not aftermarket. It was perhaps an afterthought
since orignal design, but they came from the factory with AC, at least
on the later 114/115

By aftermarket you mean fitted by the dealer, right? Are these the
Behr units that are often mentioned or are there some /8s out there
with other kinds of A/C?
if AC is fitted, there is a rotary switch on the console that switches the
air from from heat
to recirculate only AC via the dash vents, and switches from the heater fan to
the AC fan.
Aha. So you can tell by the presence of that switch that A/C is
fitted? Obviously the best check would be to look for a compressor
and so on under the hood, but I'm thinking about how to tell from
sellers' pictures if there isn't a good one of the engine. In the CL
ad I originally posted, however, methinks in the pic of the engine I
see a compressor at the bottom left---at least it has two thick lines
coming off and one has a service port on it. Is that one of the
famously long-lived York compressors?
