I'm looking for advice and information on buying an old class A. !
Remember, you asked. Welcome to the forum.
1. Whatever your budget is, quadruple it. Better yet, don't even have a budget. You won't be able to stick to it anyhow.
2. You'll need an enclosed building with heat large enough to work on your Class A project indoors. Your building will need water and power.
3. Buy a well stocked tool box and know how to use every tool in it. Be journeyman skilled in plumbing, carpentry, fiberglass repair, flooring, roof replacement, electrical wiring, RV HVAC, welding, chasis repair, engine and tranny repair, and rear diff repair.
4. Buy a very, very large bottle of aspirin. Yer gonna need it.
5. Buy your vintgage Class A and enjoy. Won't matter which one you buy. Any of the type you're looking for will all be life long hobbies. Buy the one you like best. Just keep your checkbook handy.
6. "Google "Tin Can Tourist" for ideas and info on vintage RV's. Good luck.
Happy camping!!! See y'all down the road!!!:)
