What's the rest of the camper look like? If the camper is in really great condition and presents well, everything works, etc, then I would go ahead and do the re-caulk and sell it like it was meticulously maintained all through the years. The material won't cost you that much and you'll get top dollar from a buyer who is ready to put it on his truck and go camping.
On the other hand, if there are other issues such as items or appliances that don't work, faded/yellowing exterior plastics, interior is looking tired and worn, etc., then I would sell it as "needs some TLC" and let the new owner take care of the caulking as part of whatever other mods it needs.
It has expected issues given it's age. Plastic has yellowed. Bolts and screws have rust. Stains and oxidation, etc, etc. Interior isn't mint but isn't trashed either. All things work, no issues. There is a bit of staining on the plywood floor of the cab over from the leak that I'll clean with bleach. The two black pipe roof vent covers have broke off and with be a bear to excavate. Plastic cover for the fridge venting has a corner cracked off and the plastic is pretty sun beaten.
I think I'm leaning to fixing the leaky spot and just giving her a good bath. That way the next guy knows up front what he's buying.
I think my time vs reward isn't seeming like an advantageous equation the more I think about it. But like to hear all opinions. :)
