Default Interesting Custom Swival Seat Residing in a Classic Wanderlodge.

I was sent this photo by one of this sites great Newell owners who almost became a BB Wanderlodge owner. Either way he is more than welcomed around here as we do not hold any prejudices either way. But I thought it would be cool to share this chair that is in a 1971 Wanderlodge Coach owned by Randy Dupree that guy that started the famous Wanderlodge Owners Group. I believe Randy is restoring this old classic or actual antique. Check it out below:

Keith, that is the SP and what a sweetheart of a coach it will be. It's going to be a rocket with that 8.3 Cummins upgrade. You know a serious BB or Newell owner when they own coaches of different eras. eh?

That's neat. I would like to see it when it's done. Paint job and all.

Heres a pic of Randy Dupree's 1971 SP Wanderlodge, these were quite rare as most of the older wanderlodges were FC (forward control) or front engine. SP means single pusher or rear engine. This one is in great shape for the year and presently getting a new paint job. The 8.3 cummins is planned to be installed this fall.
