Kevinmc5 · July 13, 2011, 02:52:52 PM

I'm considering a purchase of one of there coach's. A 1975 4605 GM. Before I contact the seller would like to know if any one has a bus done by them or knows any thing about them. Could not find them on the web. There phone number is no longer good. Any info would be a blessing.
Thanks Kevin

My wife called them the other day, spoke with a gentleman regarding some Flexsteel furniture. We plan on meeting up with a fellow Eagle bus nut as he lives close by their shop in Pipe Creek, TX.

I'll get the phone number she called later this morning and we'll compare with what you have.

Keep trying, I did notice their website is down. It did come up the other day when I did a Google search.

The number I have is (210) 510 4224. The bus is at Garland Motors in San Antonio TX.
I"ll try again to find them on the web. Thanks for your help.

Well,
The P8M4905A that you speak of was converted in Pipe Creek Texas and it was owned by a couple who sold it and then they converted a H8H649 Buffalo (4905) GMC Coach.
When they had the P8M4905A converted it was a nice conversion and they lived in it full time so I know the coach from when they had it.
I can not speak for the coach now but it was well maintained and cared for before they sold it.

OK I got ahead of my shelf (again). Got a copy of the title. Turns out to be a salvage. The title reads Previous Damage. The seller says never been damaged flood, fire, accident. seller Said that's the way they title a rebuild in Arkansas. I know in Texas they call it a rebuild but not previous damage. So no way for me on this one. Not to mention my Leander wont touch it. So back to looking. lots of nice buses out their just waiting for a bus nut who is trying to get a fix. Hope to be on the road sometime soon.
Once again I would not of been able to get this far without the help that you all have given me. Thank you and God bless
