I LOVE those things! Never have been in one, but the outsides have so much character! Thanks for sharing.

And here is the Mother of all Blue Bird Wanderlodge RV's...#1 as a matter of fact! On display at the Wonderlodge factory in Fort Valley, Georga. Some kind of shrine I think! 

I also love these things..the older the better!

That one is not so old. It is a DP and has a tag axle. The older ones are FC (front engine) with usually a 4 speed or 5 speed Allison. They are still around and still get a fair price for their age. My Daughter and SIL are looking at one currently. They are all about 35' from the early 80s era.

The biggest problem with the older Wanderlodges is you probably spend half of the day answearing questions and showing your rig. They are one heck of a coach.
