Count on six new tires and a roof reseal at that price!
heres a mechanical tip,,, a full size class C dodge motorhome like you have pictured takes the exact same front shocks as a dodge D-50 mini pickup,, same part number. But if you ask for 1 ton front shocks, it was $28, ea.. Dodge D-50 same part number $7.44 ...
$1,000 aint to bad as long as its NOT a money PIT. Check drive train, Engine,Trans,Rear axel (rear axels arent good if they are dry inside). Definitly check the roof and side walls for previous or apparent leaks, Rebuilding a complete roof is a challenge ,even for a seasoned Rv restoration. It all depends on what you want to invest into an older RV. You can't estimate LABOR,, But take in concideration what needs replaced and what materials you have available. From what I can see in the picture, (drivers side), It looks in pretty good shape.
I have come accross a few in my time that were a challenge, BUT, I enjoy bringing an older RV back to life. ( Go with Gut instinct for your final decision). It does look pretty good in the pic, But in person can be totally different story. Good Luck.
