As of 12/1/2021, a major update of the forum software was accomplished
Update: 4/20/2024: The Eagles email account at GoDaddy no longer works. I have set up a gmail account as a workaround: eaglesinternational.email@gmail.com (This link seems to work for my outlook email, but may not work for other email platforms. If it does not load, copy and paste the link in your platform.)
Update: 4/27/2024: I am getting some SQL error pages as I click on different areas of our forum. Using the back arrow and hitting the link again usually loads the page. I will wait for a day or two before I have GoDaddy look into the problem.

Re: Cowboy Coach Andy & Eileen Wright's 1968 Model 5
Yes Clifford it does work . Now compared to HWH system it not as precise but I try to have a pretty level spot to start out with. It beats blocks of wood lol. On another note Clifford we talk yesterday about the water manifold I found a web site with them for around a 120 bucks .

Andy & Eileen,
Sweet coach! I have a real affection for side-by-side seating in the driver's area. If I may ask, what brand and model are those seats in your coach? Again, very nice coach! - Greg

Hey Greg
Thanks for the nice comments . They are Flexsteel as far as model I can't tell you, No paper work with them as they where in the coach when we bought it I will look again and see if I can find something. I will also post some more pic's of them. We really like them . The co pilot seat can swing out to give the driver a little more room .
