Bluetooth with USB Type C Model M controller
While doing a bit of research, I discovered a few repos on GitHub that already solved this problem (USB interface for IBM Model M keyboard, Model M Type C and Model H).

Classic Model M and a Ploopy Classic
Hoping to swap out the controller with a USB C one one of these days to throw QMK on it, just to make it a bit more future proof. https://github.com/ashpil/Model-M-Type-C
