That photo looks like a postcard of one I've seen somewhere on the Net.. Gonna have to do some research. Is it real, or Memorex? $:-\$

It does not look that good in person but the old Cummins runs good.If I had the time and was 40 year old that would be my next project like Dallas that is a favorite for me . BTW there is another one in Oregon for sale good luck

Clifford,

Have you actually seen this bus? Is that pic a real pic of the bus?

Anybody have any ideas how hard parts would be to get? Is there a lot of special parts, or is most everything pretty standard (I would assume that the accordion is very special, and I doubt that they make it anymore).

Man, if it was just a little later on, I would buy this thing. The problem right now is, I can't spend the $$$ right now....Sigh....

God bless,

John

John316, I have seen the bus about a year ago he was asking 25 grand for it and that is a photo from the Eagle brochure notice the back ground nothing like that in Houston were I grew up.The photo does not show the tall weeds and grass with the rats, snakes, yellow jackets, wine bottles and the homeless people LOL good luck

John316 · May 15, 2009, 02:13:51 PM

Seriously? I did think that pic looked familiar. Were your serious about the homeless people? If the guy came down a couple thousand, I think that I might just bite

. It does sound like it is in rough condition...

God bless,

John

luvrbus · May 15, 2009, 02:26:36 PM

John316, the guy is telling a story about driving the bus away no way could you drive that bus and the homeless had been living in it
good luck

John316 · May 15, 2009, 02:28:33 PM

Good grief

. Thanks for the info.

God bless,

John

Well, that means there's a 50% chance that the pic IS of the actual bus.

Wonder what the total length is -- it may not be a LEGAL Iggle!
