John,
Take a look at this web site:
Vintage Air.
I buy products from them for custom Land Rover conversions. They have
it all in components + they are a great resource for AC problems.

Ryan, I think it's doable if a guy could find the right "stuff"

had the skills needed. I am going to try the fan which suits my
budget and I do believe I can plug it into the outlet all on my own.
I see some limitations to my ideal solution. Space being the
biggest. I have seen air conditioners on cargo vans which might be
useful (wider then long) but having searched the web I can't find
them. Perhaps they are a thing of the past. I don't have much space
from the nose of the bus back to the railing which goes around the
roof ( railing in not the correct term) but you know what I am
talking about. If you could mount the air compressor roof unit and
get that situated a guy could figure out how to duct it thru the
upper dash or even use the existing defrost vents. Finding the roof
unit which would fit is the first and likely biggest hitch. There
are air conditions used on off high way equipment which look
promising but they seem to be all hydraulic pressure operated. Some
body will likely point me in the direction eventually. I am going to
K-mart and get me a fan and see how that works. KISS. Keep it simple
stupid. Always good advice. There might be enough cold air in the
coach as has been suggested and this might do it for me. It
certainly would be simple. Let you know.
