Post by: Billysurf on March 14, 2017, 12:45:43 PM
I need new (or used, good condition) mirrors for my MCI 102A2.  Where can I get parts for this bus?

Hey Billysurf, try putting a little info about yourself and/or your bus in the bottom of your posts. Makes it easier for people to know what part of the country you're in and a little about your bus. You might have a kindred spirit within a few miles of you that has used parts. One never knows.
Good luck,
Will

Do need the entire mirror assy or just the mirror head? Do you have a pic of what you need?

You can buy both of the mirror glass for the heads upper and lower from Ramco for 100 bucks

Look up Ramco or Velvac on ebay there is always many mirror assemblies off of the sticks and staples.

Trust US Sam Caylor knows what these sell for from MCI/Ramco and sets a reasonable used market valuable price on them. Don't try to "jew" him down or he will drop one on the floor and ask you "Did you hear that? That WAS the mirror you needed breaking as it hit the floor!" And hang up on you.
He knows what his parts are worth and absolutely hates people trying to "jew" him down.

As mentioned above try editing your info so we can get an idea of who/where ya are.
You'd be surprised there might be a local busnut to you that has a source of parts close by at cheaper prices. (and maybe not, but you never know when one might)

Also as mention let us know what part exactly your needing could be one of us has it in our spare parts stash.
;D  BK  ;D

You got to know how to work Sam I been dealing with him for over 20 years don't cop a attitude and you are fine,he doesn't sell junk parts.
I bought all the dash switches with the panel looked new for the DL3 and he bargain he had those in a private stash.LOL when he is buying he will hammer on you I sold him a Cat excavator many years ago then he talked me into delivering the thing for free and I had to buy the permits   ;D

Really appreciate all the feedback!  Info in signature now.  I need the whole assembly.  The mirrors and base are both corroded and I think not repairable.  The bus is getting a bath and maybe an airbag or two, but I will upload a pic when she's back!

   The best day I had at the Blytheville rally was spent with Sam Caylor and John Vickors.

Two of the greatest "old" bus nuts around.

And yes BK the glass breaking is one of Sams best tales.
