rk911 gave you good advice. Get it weighed so you know what the actual weight is.
As for contacting Monaco (the present owner of Holiday Rambler) I seriously doubt they have records going back prior to about 2000, even if you gave them the VIN number.
There is a good chance Holiday Rambler bought the chassis from one of the major truck manufacturers, and you could contact that manufacturer (like Ford, Dodge, etc) for some guidance on determining what the capacity might be.
One salvation though, HR built very good, safe rigs back in those days, unlike some manufacturers that built rigs with almost no extra weight or cargo capacity. I bet you've got a thousand pounds or maybe more.
