Tom --

OOPS!  Looks like I had wishful thinking eyeballs (read compressor, was
condensor).  The low price compressors are for pre-87 and $170.

I went back to take another look, and I think your model would be $300,
although you should check with the Bus Depot to be sure.

So - now I don't know what the best deal is for your A/C system.

Thirty lashes for me!

Then I went to get the A/C fixed. Ouch!

I just got off the phone with the guy from the radiator shop. He said I need
the following:

compressor shaft seal
receiver dryer
freon

I understand that it's old, stuff breaks, etc. The A/C definitely doesn't
work at the moment (blows but not cold)

Questions:

Is $514.70 too much to pay for having this work done?
