Well, I hate to say it but because of some things that have recently happened, including being screwed over by a friend, I am going to put my Eagle up for sale. I'm sure most of you have seen it and know the story.

Here are the basics:
1989 New Jersey Transit Eagle
6V92TA DDECII with Allison 748 with retarder
Constructed from Corten steel
Aluminum wheels
8" roof raise
R&M front cap ($550 new)
R&M rear cap ($575 new)
R&M fiberglass siding 35'x42" (4 sheets @ $500 each)
Air wipers installed but not hooked up
Peninsula dual pane sliding windows (7 large and 2 small)

In case you don't know, the raise has not been completed and the sides and caps will need to be installed. It is at a great place for someone who is considering adding a slide out! The bus runs and drives great and starts easily every time. I am asking $10k for everything listed above.

In addition to the bus, I have a few other things that I will be selling that I had bought for the bus.
15kw Isuzu diesel generator with about 30 hours on it
Hurricane hydronic heating system with 10 hours on it
2 burner electric glass top stove
2 older Vanner invertors
2 squirrel cage fans
VIP smart wheel
Eagle for front of bus. Has both flat and recessed plates.

I'm sure there is more. I'll have to go dig the stuff out of storage. If someone wants the entire package, I'll take $15k for everything I have.

I am not getting out of Eagles, in case anyone is wondering. Just trying to make it through a bad situation that I find myself in. I'm still going to be involved and will buy another bus down the road.

It's not fair, I don't know what else I could say but that guy can't be named "a friend".

It's a shame hear about this.

As Paul said me sometimes, some day the dream will be real.

You're right, Julio. But I'm a trusting person so I let things happen.

But no matter! I will not let it get me down. If I can get this one sold to get me through the stuff right now I will find another one when the time is right.

I'll let the new owner make any announcements whenever they want to. I'll just say that I think it is going to a good home with someone who can actually build it.

I have no doubt that things will be fine, Paul. It takes more than this to beat me. And I'll start looking for another bus as soon as I can. Look at it this way - Not having to worry about working on the bus gives me more time to build up this website! :D
