Hi,
Don't know if you purchased the motorhome or not, but I thought I would give you my experience with my own 1979 Robin Hood RV. We purchased ours from A friend of the families to help them out after the husband/father passed away. It had been sitting for a while, the mice had eaten the wiring, but our friends had said they had everything working and it had been gone through with a mechanic. It turned out that the refrigerator didn't work the front and back hatch both leaked water and add roof and floor damage. It would overheat when driving, that heater had been disconnected, and the windshield wipers didn't work. Over the last four years I have done a lot of the work myself, had mechanics do the work I couldn't, and it is just about ready to get back on the road. Would I have still purchased this RV knowing the problems that had? Yes, because I was helping out a friend. But, otherwise I would've never purchased such an old vehicle. My recommendation is to purchase something newer.
