77 Wanderlodge
Hello
I am looking at a 77 wanderlodge with a 534 ford gas engine. I have beed doing some research on this and can't find anything that mentions this engine being part of this model. Any thoughts? Also, should I be aware of anything about this model? It looks good and has been well maitained. The motor was rebuilt and has 49,000 mileson it. Looks like a automatic which I'm not sure is a good thing. I am headed to look at it in the morning. Thanks -Robert |

This the one on Ebay? Check over on the FC_Wanderlodge forum there
have been some exchanges there recently on another gas Wanderlodge that was on Ebay. 534 was installed by BB in these models. There is an owner of one that posts over on the FC forum. These engines are not as common as the diesels so parts are a little harder to find.

Robert,
According to the VintageBirds site history section, the early 77s still had the Ford gas engine even though the CAT diesel was introduced that year. If you have not discovered that site yet, it is http://www.vintagebirds.com and it has tons of info on the history of Wanderlodges. We have several memebrs with 77s that should speak up when they see your post.
