What do you think this coach would be worth? - Jon - 09-23-2007 02:19

Since I have no idea of what value is to place on this coach I was
wondering what a few of you folks out there might place on this unit?ce
the value on this unit. It is on e-Bay and at the present time the bid
stands at 62,000 dollars.

Thanks Don and now to figure out how to get one my twin boys out of
law school so I pay for that coach and not his schooling. Hope he
remembers me when he becomes a practicing attorney.

For some reason, the photos didn't load when I went to view the
listing -- so it's extremely hard to evaluate the particular unit
without any visual information.

A '93 might be valued up to or even above $100,000 -- depending on
condition. You can compare vs. asking prices at Bird Connection or
Vintage Birds to see what similar year models are selling at.

I note that I purchased my coach through eBay from Mr. Olivers. I
feel that I got a "good deal" in the transaction.

I note that there's a second BB WL, "Bluebird Wanderlodge WB40"
that's also bid at about $62,000. It appears to be quite clean (in
the photos) and it, too is quite possibly worth $100K or more.

I also note that both '93 Birds show "reserve not met."

Good catch on noticing the missing goat rail on the 91 on eBay
http://tinyurl.com/23p73m . The light bar across the front between
the headlights has been replaced with a solid panel also. Appears to
have had some repainting done, in addition to the murals, since the
front says "Taking Off" with a plane silhouette, where the Wanderlodge
logo normally is. Has that on the back also, but the Wanderlodge name
and logo are in the correct places in the back, up in the mural area.

Other than that, I would say it was *not* a Royale conversion (I
*thought* those were only done in late-88 thru 90 models). The
interior is classic Wanderlodge (minus the TV upgrades). In fact, it
appears to be one of only four ever built, per Benny, and only in 91,
with the "Y" bath (you face the bath vanity when facing rearward and
there are two aisles on either side into the bedroom, making for a
very private bedroom area). The interior hardware and woodwork
closely matches mine (one of the four 91's), although the salon layout
is different. A rare Bird indeed.

As far as I know Royale Conversions were offered in 88-90. I have goat rails.

Dial in http://www.moulisonnorth.com, this looks like a Corporate Owned coach. Got the
info off the side of the coach. They do Airport electrical, hence Taking Off on
the back of the coach. It looks like a nice coach and with the Y bath is very
rare. I wonder what happened to the goat rails? I have a friend from Maine in
the electrical business who may know this coach. I will email him and ask.
