  1. Sorry Folks I didn't send twice, paused in entering and it was duplicated. Couldnt see a delete from my end?some sort of Chrome autosave I'm suspecting. Will post pics asap. Thank you
  2. P.S. Wanted to say that majority of the inside is fine.... just over cab and one other spot by a window. And Please let me know if I should put the money into the Redo or As is Thanks so much!
  3. Dear Folks, Need your help and opinions.... Have an 18' Sunrader that I've decided to sell. (Have granddaughter, live most of time in Canada, different life path than 4 years ago, and want money to pay off new used station wagon). But I know I made a mistake. Probably back when I bought it in 2013 for $5,500 - I didn't know what I was doing. But I fell in love – had been wanting one for years. She's lovely on the outside, and everything on the inside works. Furnace, water, heater, etc. Had her checked out mechanically, she was fine. Then a few months and several hundred miles later the timing chain broke. I had the engine completely rebuilt in 2013, new master clutch and cylinder in 2014, replaced rear leaf springs and sway bar, turn signal. All to the tune of $5,177 (receipts in hand). I took her on several fun jaunts in the Northwest, last summer to Victoria. 2016-17 was a very tough winter in BC - Water damage. She wasn't in a garage and I was out of the country with my family, babysitting. When I had my carpenter look at it.... Major water damage that came in on top of rot that was there all along. His quote to get it salable – redo all over-cab wood, seal it, and clean rest of inside up – was $3500 (to start). Sooooo.... I have a dearly beloved motorhome that I want to sell. My question is: Do I sink another $3500 into it? Don't know if that will make it Ikea like or just sturdy. Maybe I could get more out of it, but maybe it would take a long time? Or do I sell as is – leaking around the windows (who knows from where), really needs a redo inside, for $5500? I truly believe it is worth that – for all the mechanical work I've had done, and just for being a 1982 18' Sunrader. Please Help me with your opinions... Wish I didn't need the money, and/or had the skills to redo her myself thus recouping my investment but I don't. If remodeling is the only option I will have to sell some of the little resource I have left to hire someone to do the work. Thanks so much for taking the time to consider this.
