Fwiw the top photo is a model 15 motor home chassis the next 2 are Eagles built in Mexico,and David that is Richards Model 07  he does live in Michigan and that bus has a tee drive no dropbox  nice bus isn't it  


good luck
The top photo is a very good looking design.  I always thought that a "high driver" eagle had a very awkward looking front clip due to moving the windshields up high, which was out of proportion to the extruded siding below.  However, the stripe painted across this one breaks the pieces very well and is a very good proportion.  I wonder if this could be accomplished with model 10 windshields.  I've never seen a high driver with 10 windshields, only 15.

And, yes that 07 on the smugmug link sans rivets was some coach.  Sikaflex held the whole thing together.

I just got my question answered.  Dee Sargent's bus in the EI Mall is a high driver with 10 windows.  It looks like it has an extra row of extruded siding all the way around.
