    Default Ernest Borgnine

    I was trying to find some photos of Ernest Borgnine's old bus. He had a Beaver Prevost built and then a Country Coach.
    Here is a youtube clip of him form a documentatary called "Ernest Borgnine on the Bus"

    When I was searching for my first bus, this bus was for sale by Paul Davis. I came close to at least flying out to see it. It was a Beaver conversion, but the interesting thing (as I remember it), it had 4 big skylite windows in the coach. Like nothing I've ever seen.

    I didn't see it in the video, however. Perhaps I'm confusing it with another coach? But, I did remember chatting with Paul Davis about the coach, and he gave me the names of the dealerships where it had been serviced etc. Spoke with service managers to get a feeling for the maintenance history on the bus.

    I'll have to see if I still have any pictures from Paul Davis.

    How old is Ernie now? I remember a recent interview and he is well up in his years and still gettin around pretty good.

    90 something, pretty sure.

    I grew up watching McCales Navy and the guy hasn't changed a bit. Great clip.

    I bought the used VHS on Amazon last year. I thought it fitting to play in the relic of a player built into my bedroom above the night stand. Real classic!
