In one sense a really cool and rare camper like that is really valuable. However you need to compare it against two things:
What would it cost you to buy any other MH of same or even newer vintage and convert it to 4 x 4?
What would be the cost of a '79 or even newer 4 x 4 truck with a nice 1979 or even newer truck camper? I'm guessing this would be "not very much".
I have advocated to those that wanted a newer something, with 4x4...go get the RV you want and can pay for, then either get a kit or take it to a shop and have a conversion done. Cost will be about 25 grand for that. Go the Quigley route and a person is into it for maybe $200,000. Somehow, that just doesn't make sense to me.
