In this episode, we learn the history of the buses that helped build the entertainer tour industry, the Eagle! Eric owns a vintage 1989 Marathon Eagle, Model 15.
There were only 7 or 8 built with that chassis / interior combination and at the time was the smoothest riding and coolest vehicle on the road if you were a touring artist. Artists and drivers STILL talk about the smooth ride of an Eagle coach buses.
Eric talks about the evolution of these beauties, and how Prevost came into the industry, made updates and improvements and basically took Eagle’s share of the market.
Eric, his business partner Jim Borelli and their friend Tim Dillman own 4 out of the total 7 or 8 of these buses and they are truly unique. Eric talks about how they acquired them and describes the interior and exterior of these masterpieces.
