Title: Beluga Bus update
Post by: Beluga Bus on December 10, 2022, 03:53:25 PM
After being hit in January, and being in the shop since April, I finally got the bus home! Premier Motorcoach did a great job with the metal work and paint. Just a few non related issues to work through from sitting for almost a year, then I will be back on the road.

Please remind us again what happened to Beluga Bus back in January. . .

Glad to hear the good news Matt.  I hope to see the Beluga Bus at the Flxible rally and in Quartzsite in January.  I can't wait to see if that new 8V92 engine gets you up the hills faster.

RJ- It was parked at my house in January, at least 30ft on my property. An 18 yr old kid in a brand new Bronco was doing 40mph with ice on the road. He slid off the road, hit the front of the bus then bounced through my neighbor's garage.

Thanks for the refresher, now I remember. Suspect the 18-year-old learned something that day!

Kudos to Premier Motorcoach for their repair and restoration work!

Glad to see you got it repaired. Now what about rebuilding the 4-71? Good Luck, TomC
