What to look for when purchasing a vintage camper

There are wonderful online resources to help guide you in the purchase and restoration of an old vintage camper. Some of the best advice I have read, especially concerning what to look for when purchasing a camper, can be found here: http://www.vintagecampers.com/restorationinfo.php

Perhaps, like you, I am fairly new at this process.  I have read a lot, viewed plenty of websites, facebook pages, and scoured Craigslist and ebay, knowing my limitations, both financially and experientially. Yet still, I plow forward, seeking help when able, and making mistakes, in spite of access to the wealth of information.

Over the next few months I will be sharing the resources I have found, and invite your questions and contributions. I am also considering the purchase, over the next several years, of a new reproduction, too, for both personal use and rental.
I will be including a list of resources and choices as well.

Happy Trails,
