My 66 barracuda has factory AC. Getting ready to recharge the system and get it working again. I have one 12oz. Can of R12. How much more will I need for a complete recharge?

Don't know if there is anything in the system. Car sat for a few years. I took the ac belt off. Compressor would kick on, but blows hot . I'm going to take it to an AC shop, but I wanted to source the R12 Freon before taking it in.Does it have anything in the system now? Regardless, I've never charged by the factory spec. I charge using the gauges. when I get good pressure on both sides that correlates with the ambient air temperature, that's where I nail it down.
Thank you sir!65 FSM says Plymouth systems use 45oz of R12! 3 cans.....it also states 8 oz after foam clears in sight glass. Page 710 of FSM
