Posted: Thu May 16, 2013 5:46 pm Post subject: A Bluebird Barn Find In South West France ? |
|
|
I thought this was a late fifties or early sixties Bluebird. Anyone know different. Van Man.?
In a nearby village I spotted this caravan in a barn.The property is empty and for sale,so I would have thought the owner wants the caravan removed.
The previous use was with a circus. Lots of circus items in the barn and inside the caravan.
We thought the person who travelled in the caravan was a clown.
Looking at the way everything has grown up around the caravan it has been there a good while.
I have tracked down the owner of the property (inherited we think) and need to just fix a price and a way of getting it removed to our location a few miles away.
Then turn it into a period holiday let for classic caravan enthusiasts who would like to visit the Dordogne in south west France.

Looking inside it has twin beds in the front,a partition,and a double bed in the wall,in the middle. The kitchen is at the rear.
So I would say 16-18ft.
It was a bit difficult to photograph. |

It was still in the barn two weeks ago when I was over there.
It is just the logistics of getting it out.
I have spoken to the person who has inherited the property, they are happy for me to have it as long as I do no damage getting it out.
