Does anybody know if all the 1987 Suzuki Samurais came with air conditioning
from factory?

It was an option, but not standard.  They convert well into on-board air.  :)

Not hard, just find a donor with all the pieces needed and put it in.  You'll find it more in tintops than soft tops.

Have you done that conversion? or seen a build of it online?

Google will find you several articles on the conversion - including Samurai specific ones - just search for on board air.
