We have spent the last 3 months seriously seeking a Bird. I have read
all the archives of the forums and followed many posts closely. Today
we bought an 88 FC. I now have a million more questions! We dont lick
it up for 3 weeks so will be very anxious. Does any one know the
history of "Looney Bird II"?

Hi Ernie.
Coach is in Columbus Ohio but was origianlly from Pennsylvania. I have
the Blue Box and there might be a receipt or something from the first
owner. Just too excited to look. We are heading back to Mexico and
will return to Ohio for the unit in about 3 weeks. Dont know if I
will sleep till then. I learned one thing in the last few months. It
is very hard to find one of the 87 to 89's in exceptional condition.
Because they are newer most have not been redone and show aging. Many
of the pre 85 units have been totally restored and thus look better.
This coach has been stored indoors since new and it shows. The paint
is very good. But I have noticed on all the 87 and up FC's I saw that
the paint appears blotched. Hard to explain but when you look in the
right light there are lighter and darker areas. I will try buffing and
see if it helps. It is a good thing my wife was with me. I might have
passed due to a few minor ailments. She feel in love with the BB and
said that if I dont get this one I will never forgive myself. She was
right!
