Fixing that AC will be easy.
I'd toss the fabbed AC hoses and purchase a new set of hoses from one of the many suppliers who sell parts. I got a set from LMC for under $100 if I remember correctly.

You need the hoses, a new receiver drier (approximately $30-$40), and a buddy with an ac vacuum pump or a shop willing to recharge your system.

Also now would be a GREAT time to switch the system over to R-134a.
