Title: Eagle lovers? possibly the one to restore! For that piece of history!
Post by: Busted Knuckle on October 01, 2008, 08:08:01 AM
While browsing on the "bay" I found this and thought some of you Eagle fans might be interested!

and no I have no financial interests in it, just thought I'd pass it on! ;D  BK  ;D

BK.....You're killing me man.... ;D

That would be a nice one to get a hold of and leave it stock. But what the heck would I do with another Eagle? The way it's going it will take me another 40 years to get this one right! That would make me 99. Not gonna happen!

That is a good looking Eagle!

Wonder if tekebird is interested? ;) To bad his is gone for a while, he would love to join all the Eagle posts! ;D

Don and I could get very close to that price on a nice Southern CA Eagle 10 with an automatic. Of course, it already has the seats out and stuff. That is a nice looking coach but I would worry about it coming from Wisconsin.

peabody, that eagle looks nice in the pics, but....
get somebody good to examine it.  look for rust.  then look for rust, and if you don't find any, look again, you m isssed it.

speaking from experience.  i now carry a can a rustoleum around while check ing the engine oil.  just a little spray helps keep the orange down.

i just read the ebay post and posted some questions of my own.  if he gets the price down, there may be some parts i need.

wonder why no interior pics, no baggage pics, etc.  Doesn't he have the bus?

BK, if it has jakes, can i use them on the 8v92?

Tom, I just sent you a PM a couple of days ago. We have Jakes if you are still looking. Lots cheaper than buying an entire bus to get them too!
