There was an interesting ad I had stumbled upon, and because I am looking for a well-built, slightly older, and less expensive RV, I read the content of the article. My first, and only thought, was to ask those much more knowledgable than I concerning a potential purchase.
Stated in the ad was the fact the RV was close to 30 years old, and the owner replaced the motor with a re-built Cat engine, re-wired the chassis, and almost completely re-modeled the inside. Now he calls it a year "2000" due to all the replacements. My question is if he did all this work, would a re-built engine, and chassis wiring be suitable to last a long time, or would there be any rust underneath the coach to warrant being suspicious of frame/chassis failure down the road?
I've probably left out some information you would need to advise me with, but the questions I asked were what I thought would be important. Thank you for anything you might educate me in understanding a coach conversion.
