Great idea posting video's of your coaches! They're all good no matter what!

The 4104 is one of my favorite's, behind the Eagle of course!  I just love the old look!

Bill that is a seriously nice bus. You have done a great job on it. Congrats.

Jordan, you have a nice bus, too. If I remember, you haven't had yours long enough to make many changes to it. I'm sure you have lots of good times ahead and your next video in a year we will hardly recognize it. But you have it and can use it which is the point. I don't think there is a contest going on. Keep on enjoying it.

Thanks to both of you for posting these videos.

Considering those 04's are well over 50 years old-they look great.  I was considering using a 06, but both the 04 and 06 are not a good conversion when you're 6'3" tall.  Hence-using a 40ft x 102" wide transit with 6'10" of headroom.  Good Luck, TomC

Great videos, both.

Thank you for sharing your bus.  What engines are in those bus'?  What do you get for MPG?

The 4104, I think, benefited from a number of modernization upgrades.....steering....brakes...what else have you done to the coach/power plant systems?

My 04 has a 6V71 with sheppard power steering and jake brakes. I haven't added any upgrades myself.  I have only taken one trip and i figured i averaged about 7 mpg.

[Bill in KS]

Mine has 671 w/ 2 valve head.  60 injectors.  I've never calculated my MPG's.  I've had the radius arm bushings R&R'd, R&R'd Ujoint, put some new shocks on it, ran the valves & injector clearances and turned the gov. RPM up.  Had a positive to Negative ground conversion done before I bought it.
  It had the rear brakes converted to the spring style when I bought it.  Have a shepard system to put on the coach in a couple months.

4104's forever  Still the most popular converted bus out there. If you consider model not make.

MCI"S if you consider make with Eagles a close 2nd.

This is from my observations at rallys.
