They should put this on the window sticker of 350's and 370's: Funky HVAC smell......no charge.
They did add an "in cabin" air filter to later models, but the filter really doesn't solve the mildew problem that causes the smell - it seems to happen regardless. Running the heater to evaporate the moisture does work if you can remember to do it - and you can stand the heat.
Leagues of Z drivers have battled this demon with various combinations of chemicals, with some success, but never permanently. We keep trying, though.
