Hi Charlie. Welcome to our forum. I moved your post to a new thread so that it does not get mixed in with another thread.

Well, for starters it has a scrap value of maybe $1500 if materials are separated properly. But that is a heck of a job.

Next is the value of parting out the bus. There are lots of valuable parts on an Eagle and that might get you $2-3,000. Again a heck of a job unless you can find customers willing to remove the parts.

Lastly is the value of the bus for restoration/conversion. We will need photos and a good report of the level of rust damage in order to give you some sort of estimate.

It would be good to post the location of the bus in case there might be a member close that could help you inspect the bus.
