First Time Buyer for Revcon 1972

I'm looking at buying a 1972 Revcon 250 and am trying to read everything I can about its reliability or what to look for with the mechanics. Ideally, the Revcon will take me across country and back to California without breaking down or dying all together.

This would be my first RV so this group seems like a good place to start. Can you give me suggestions on what to look for, what to be aware of, or tell me if it's nuts to think a 43 year old RV will make it across country?

Here's the model I'm looking at:

I appreciate any input!

    This member is a huge Revcon fan. You might want to send him a PM if he doesn't see your post.

    As I remember the biggest concern was a frame that would rust out. This pretty much makes what would seem like a nice coach worthless.
