I now have a 1986 MCI 102.  Drove it 1400 miles home and she ran great!!  Now the fun of stripping her out and some minor body work.

Jim,
Congrats on the bus.  That's the exact same setup we have.  Makes for a great conversion.  Lots of room, big windows up front, easy to work on.  We're a little east of Wichita too, in Coffeyville. 
If you are ever interested in some of the unique things I did with my space your welcome to peek.

That puts you somewhere around Pickrell Corner.
I spent a month there one night back when I was trucking! (long story we'll save for another day!)
