Watch "Cooking with Tyler Florence" on AOL Food. 1986 PT40 for sale cheap - Rick A. - 05-21-2008 07:26 At PPL motorhome sales in houston texas there is currently a 86 40ft Bluebird Wanderlodge for sale for $14,450. PPL's number is 1-800-755-4775. A link to this, if it works, is: http://www.pplmotorhomes.com/diesel/14118.HTM I know nothing about it and am not connected in any way with the seller. But for that price it has to have major issues? but still it may be perfect for someone to restore or use as a lake house? Rick Archie 85pt40 "Fort R" Fort Worth 1986 PT40 for sale cheap - Pete Masterson - 05-21-2008 07:38 Priced for "quick sale?" ... I dunno, there's an '86 PT40 on Bird Connection with an asking price "reduced" to $89K. 86PT40 on Vintage birds, asking $65K ... another, 86PT38 asking $47K. Looks like the PPL unit has the 6v92 -- much less power than the 8v92 -- might also be a factor in the price. PPL has been around long enough to know the value of a BB ... so I suspect that they're aware of issues with this particular coach. Might be good for someone willing to take on a "project" coach, but probably not for someone looking for a cream puff.

1986 PT40 for sale cheap - Gardner Yeaw - 05-21-2008 09:27 I think perhaps the statement in the description says it all. "If You Are Looking For A Coach To Put On A Lake Lot or Hunting Lodge" It seems to hint that it isn't road worthy. But the shell should be worth 14,500 to someone local.

The front "grill" trim is missing from the front end. The goat rail is gone. The front A/C condenser on the roof is gone (something happen to the roof?). The barrel chairs are gone. Most of the dinette is gone (never seen that before). The bathroom mirror is gone and replaced with a small hanging mirror. The mirrored bathroom cabinet doors have both been replaced with something different. The mirrors are gone from the back wall of the bedroom. And is that a white steel rim on the curb-side tag wheel? I have said it before...if it doesn't "feel" right, it's wrong. My guess is this thing is a disaster. PPL is not in the motorhome give away business.

It is a definate fixer upper. She did get to their sales lot under her own power. It seems as though the past owner of 8 years removed anything that broke or quite functioning. Sales guy had no idea why he would do this. The fridge is gone as well as some other accessories like the heaters. The genny will not start and the slide needs to be wired up to keep it from coming forwards. According to PPL the tires look good and the exterior is in good condition for it's age. Unkown if central A/C works. Could be a great coach parked next to the pond on my farm:}Or maybe a shooting stand for next years Deer season. Might even be a canidate for the Australian coach we were talking about. Dealer said 55 or 60 K on the odometer that restated unknow by previous owner. Here's a total crap shoot, come on 7. Oh yea, the previous owner replaced the roof vents with sheet metal! LOL !!

1986 PT40 for sale cheap - Scott Forman - 05-21-2008 12:03 I wonder what made the mirrors quit working? :-) Scott --- In WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com, "bumpersbird" > > I called PPL.
