Item location: Pasadena, California, United States
Description:
Eagle
This is an all original 1982 Eagle Model 10 passenger bus. The bus was originally purchased by the US General Services Administration (GSA) for school transport use on an Indian reservation in Wyoming. The bus was later sold to a youth group, and then to Northwest College in Powell, Wyoming, who owned it for approximately 6 years and used it for student transport across the country. I purchased the bus in June 2016 from Northwest College, as they were upgrading to newer and smaller vehicles.I have all of the maintenance records for the bus from Northwest College forward, and also have original parts and service manuals. The mileage should be just under 300K, per the maintenance receipts. The engine is a Detroit Diesel turbocharged 6V92, with an Allison HT740 automatic transmission.
Bus runs excellent with absolutely no operational issues. Both the main coach A/C system and the driver's A/C system work perfectly. The heat also functions. Engine has a jake brake, which I've been told works, but have not had the opportunity to test on mountain driving. Bus also has a rear restroom, however I have never used it (toilet only, no sink).
All seats are original fabric, though I had the black vinyl headrests replaced with red to better match the interior colors. I also replaced the original driver's seat with a much more comfortable air ride seat.

Bus will include misc. Eagle parts, including one new windshield, one piece of passenger glass, several extra turn signal, brake, reverse & clearance lights, engine belts, etc.
This would be an amazing candidate for a conversion. I have it registered as a historical vehicle, as California has very strict air emissions regulations.
I have lots of pictures (I'm limited to 24 here) that I'd be happy to send.
I'd have no reservations about driving this bus across the country and would not anticipate any issues. I am happy to assist with coordination on transport, or may be able to deliver for a fee.
Please contact me with any questions or if you need more information, photos, videos, etc.
$500 deposit must be made via PayPal within 24 hours of purchase. The remainder must be paid in cash upon pick up, or arranged via bank wire, prior to pick up. Bus will only be released when paid in full and funds have cleared bank. I WILL NOT accept personal or business checks, cashier's check or money order.
Thanks for looking!
