Looking at a 1985 Wanderlodge Bluebird 40 ft.
Cheryl,

I'd venture to say that the coach was not used enough. The market is soft
right now, so you may be able to get the seller down in the 30's if they are
motivated. Parts are easy to come by, but skilled labor is not. Unless you are
comfortable with a digital multimeter, moonlighting as a diesel mechanic and
enjoy a bloody knuckle now and then (LOL), the coach will eat you alive with
labor costs. Does the seller have a list of upgrades and repairs?
