No. Even when I was broke I had AC. I had a $400 car and a crap job.
>Scavenged an AC compressor from a trashpile windowshaker and used it as a vacuum pump
>bought a used set of manifold gauges off craigslist
>took the AC system apart and put new o-rings in it
>bought refrigerant and PAG oil at walmart and recharged the system
>had cold AC that still was working when I got rid of the car

In later project cars I've fabricated brackets to mount upgraded AC compressors when OE became scarce, made custom lines with parts purchased online to accommodate swaps. The only difficult thing about AC is dealing with the same shit that makes other parts of the car difficult to work on like having to remove half the interior to get to the evaporator, or dealing with corroded fittings.
