Bird Hunting
Hello to all, I am new to the Wanderlodge Forum. I have sold a 1992 Beaver
Prevost and I am looking to purchase a Wanderlodge and I was hoping to get some guidance. Based on what I have read so far here is what I think I am looking for, an LXI 1998-2001 with a series 60 engine. First, does anyone have any suggestions. Second, what should I expect to pay. Thanks in advance. |

Gregory,
Welcome to the forum also! I didn't realize Beaver did Prevost conversions back then. Must have been nice. The LXi is a real nice unit and the 60 series is very well regarded. The Bird Connection may be one of the best places to gauge current asking prices. If you have not been to that site yet, it is a listing site just for Bluebird Wanderlodges at http://www.birdconnection.com/ and there might even be one or two listed at http://www.vintagebirds.com which is a great site to learn about Birds. Good luck on your hunt. They are wonderful machines. Mike Bulriss - moderator 1991 WB40 "Texas Minivan" San Antonio, TX |

Mike,
Thanks for the welcome. The beaver was a very nice conversion with lots of wood, I have had some second thougths after selling. I had planned on buying a newer Prevost with a 60 series engine but as I began to read about the Blue Bird and their construction it seems to be a better fit for my family. Thanks for the sites.

Randy's listing is for a 97 WB. This buyer is looking for a LXi,
which started in 1998.

Can someone point me in a direction that will tell about the other models; i.e.
wb, M380. ect.. They may or may not be good options, I am not familiar with them. Someone contacted me about a 2004 M380, is something I should consider. Any help would be greatly appreciated, feeling a bit lost. Thanks Greg --- In WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com, "mbulriss" <mbulriss@...> wrote: > > Randy's listing is for a 97 WB.

Greg,
Here's another link I had forgotten about. It's the listing of For Sale By Owners at the Blue-bird site. It's still up and active during the transition and I expect many of those Birds are still for sale. http://www.blue-bird.com/products/coach/.../fsbo.html Mike Bulriss 1991 WB40 "Texas Minivan" San Antonio, TX --- In WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com, "gregorylynnhaag" wrote: > > Mike, > Thanks for the welcome.
