There is a Country Coach Eagle on the e place this morning.

I don't get some of the suspension modifications on that bus a 2 million mile suspension system that has all ready been replaced with a Dina style ? I don't believe that happen but it is setting way low for some reason with 80,000 miles
.Must have been a custom build I never saw that one before,never saw those type mirrors on a CC or never saw a CC Eagle without HWH leveling jacks either
good luck
Clifford, I think it does have leveling jacks. One of the pictures shows four switches with raise and lower.
If the bidders don't get carried away he has to sell , no reserve. His buy it now if you contact him is 58K

This looks like a sister to our bus that is a CC conversion.
There were supposed to be 4 Eagles converted by Country Coach, this would be the 4th one that I know of personally. The story was that Prevost was on strike and CC couldn't get coaches to convert so they tried Eagle. They didn't do any more because Eagle wanted payment upon delivery to CC and Prevost would floor plan their coach until CC sold them.
It still has the inverter in the curb rear compartment and the gen set mounted midship, a bad place for both. It is also a jacuzzi model, our coach has an empty breaker labled for that but has a shower instead. That probably accounts for some of the low ride.
It will have a DDEC I engine with a 475 HP spec and a HT-755CR Allison I suspect.
Eagle played with an air leveling system and that is what it looks like it has. I'd prefer the HWH
The mirrors are like what were what were on our coach and the PO replaced them with the Ramco mirrors you are accustomed to seeing.
It looks like a nice coach and if someone ends up with it that is active on the board here, I'd like to stay in touch.
Happy Trails,
Larry
Sold to the Blue Goose
Congratulations....I was bidding for a while, but the price went above my max a few minutes before the end.
Interested to know if you get the CC manuals, maintenance records, etc as the seller said he could not locate them.
Let us know how you enjoy it !!!!!
Thats nice. Congrats. Now you are a bonified member of the 2 bus club.
That is a very good example for current value of a nice bus of that vintage. What a buyers market right now.
Yes,
Congratulations. I suspect that you have a real nice coach. Country Coach officially called this model conversion a 'Freeport'. I called the now defunct CC folks to see what they could still support prior to purchasing our coach. I got a hold of a person that stated he had worked on the team that converted the Eagles. He shared that they had only converted 4 Eagles, as previously stated, and documentation should not be totally trusted as it reflected information on the Prevost conversions.
He specifically identified tank capacities as one example. I have a CC Freeport manual that I can copy for you if the documentation does not come with your coach.
I also can be a resource as I've been through all of the systems that were installed on the coach. The shore power system is a funky one as it came with a 50 amp or 2ea 30 amp feeds. It was explained that at the time this coach was converted there were not many 50 amp services at campgrounds so CC set up a system so you could plug into two 30 amp sites to meet the power needs of the coach. It is a complex and has been a problematic system in our coach.
I also have good spare EDU and ECU for the DDECI and have gathered up a few electronic injectors. I also have a good spare ECU for the transmission if it is a HT755. I also have a good spare HT755 transmission. I also have a DDECI diagnostic tool that has proved to be helpful.
I look forward to hear about your maiden voyage (trip home).
Please give me a PM sometime with your contact information and we can compare notes.

Jack, So now are you going to give the Blue Goose to Jerry so he can get out of that SOB (some other brand)! ;D ;D
You going to put a 60 series in it ? Here you helped out Eric with the computer on his repower.
Ed
Jack sure won a good looking coach. I do think I see a series 60 in his future!!!!! Heck. I will give him $500.00 and take up payments!!LOL
Congratulations Jack! That sure is a pretty bus! Looks like you got you a good one... and at a steal too! Hope I get to see you in it sometime.
