Bratton coaches??

I guess to the general public....no one would ever know what a piece of crap they were

to most out there a hearse is a hearse they all look the same

no one looks at the hearse at the funeral anyways BUT I DO !!!!!!
 
I think it is a nice looking car, I'm sure somebody will love it! May not be my first choice but for 30 years old it looks like it was well cared for in its working life. To bad if it ends up as a work car or beater. As for the 4100 engine, I had one with over 180,000 miles on it and it was still running good when I sold the car in 1992. I changed anti-freeze and added the GM pellets. The car always ran great and got excellent MPG. Kinda sluggish but with fuel prices around four bucks its worth the trade-off.
 
It is interesting to note various differences between the black and white examples, especially the rear side door glass. Looks like the white car has plexiglass in the rear side doors, or is that just a shadow I'm seeing at the top?

The car does have plex on the side doors, but i think the shadowing it the that you see is the curtains in it.

You know as a side note to the car it actually does ride very well and does everything that it is suppose to. Well other then get of the line very fast, but once it is up to speed it does cruz very nice. It really does not come off like the major piece every one says. I think i have see worse body work on side door on some later eurekas and such. Yes you can see trim differences and some fit and finish diffrences. But i still think it will make a ok car for someone.
 
Hey guys! I saw the name Wayland Bratton and I knew that name was familiar. I found a business card from him from the late 90's in my pro-car brochure collection, and apparently he was working at Miller Coach and Limo Sales in Dallas. They sold S&S's and Eagles.. I guess that guy really got around... Anyways, I think our buddy Jeremy Ledford has the best name for the B&B coaches..."Bondo Beauties!!" I think he's got the best nickname so far!!!
