Hello all. Well I can only imagine the following must have been posted so many times before. I bought a 1963 Santa fe. Needs new sidewall and roof insulated and plywood. The floor is solid but needs recovered and all the wood needs to be sanded and sealed. The roof
had snow cave in damage and was repaired. I wish I would have saw this forum before i bought it, but I didn't -so be it. Exterior seems ok. few busted windows. Door latch needs attention. New tires. Lights work. Stove and inside gas light works. Unsure about the fridge. Made to the 2 hr trip from Phx to Prescott without falling apart. My 1st time towing a vehicle. took 10 minutes to figure out how to back it in the driveway.I paid 1,000. and I am guesstimating about $600 in materials(hope im not being delusional) to make it something the wife will want to camp in. I am not real handy, but I will have help. I have read some posts and will watch the suggested videos. Any help or advice will be greatly appreciated.
