Royal Conversion
Ernie:
I have been trying to pin down my conversion to a number on the bus for some time. I spoke with Bennie today and he will research to see if he can track my bus back to Royal, if I send him my body number. Based upon my description he stated "there is a 99% chance that it is a Royal conversion." He couldn't recall how many Royal converted but said he would try to find out. BB sent Royal a rolling shell and Royal put in the interior. In most cases, Royal painted the coach. This per BB. The only other one I have seen is on Birdconnection, a 1989. I would like the answer for historical purposes. Thanks, Leroy Eckert 1990 WB-40 Niceville, FL |

Royal Conversion
Ernie:
For your info: You have asked prior how many Royale Conversions were constructed. I am not sure anyone knows. However, during a recent conversation with Mr. Glenn Rodgers, a former 25 year employee of BB Mr. Rodgers stated that BB sent the bus shell and the wiring blueprints to Royale who used them as a guide. Royale had free reign to do what ever was needed to install the option upgrades offered at that time and there was not any guarantee that the final wiring would match the blueprint. I can attest to that fact. If a buyer wanted an upgrade it was done. Mr. Rodgers is now at Coachcraft by McDonald in Columbus,GA. I have had work performed there and they are very nice folks. They are also a BB warranty outlet. (as usual, no financial interest in CC by Mc) Leroy Eckert 1990 WB-40"Smoke N Mirrors" Niceville, FL |
