Replace the thing that is making the loud rattle. The compressor is probably toast even though it kicks on.
But hey if you can do something like what was done to this car, why not:

The AC clutch has a bushing that can wear out and rattle and the AC clutch is available as a stand alone part , if you take the clutch off its fairly obvious if its lost the bushing/bearing and or clutch plate.. It can also help to flip the thrust washer over so its running on fresh surface. I also cleaned mine while I had it apart worked fine for 3 years. (THen totaled RIP)
