Ah, you're going to mess up a beautiful car. Anyway, to my knowledge, it's not a removal; it's a disconnection. If it's factory air and you just don't want it, open the hood, look in and somewhere on the right for a compressor. Those old cars didn't have serpentine belts like today's cars, so if it's a belt that doesn't operate any other part, like the alternator or Power Steering, remove the belt (some people just cut it off). Make sure a qualified mechanic has captured the freon before you remove hoses. Then look behind the compressor and loosen the remove the bolts that hold it to the block.

Remove the compressor, hoses and such and you're there. Better gas mileage anyway. I might've missed some points; get a Chilton repair book at the library and review before attacking this project.

As far as I know, it will not. The 65 Elky is a second generation, and the 72 is third generation, which is actually longer. If you need a new frame, you'd need one from the same generation. Which for the 65 is from 64-67.
