Turn around and walk, I mean Run, away fast, lol.

Looks like a mess.

Keep checking places like Craigslist.

You can sometimes find one in tact and usable for around $1500 if you are persistent.

Seen ones that are usable but old and rough for 1200. I would pay a hundred bucks for that thing gut this hell out of it, and just use it as a shell after putting some canvas around it

Eeek.... $500 is pretty steep. Worth picking up if the price came down? Maybe. Fwiw my FWC was in about the same shape and I paid $250 for it. It is still in rough shape :elkgrin: but it's solid and clean inside and I feel like I've gotten my moneys worth out of it.

With that in mind I'd say if that AC unit and furnace works and if it has a working fridge I'd maybe go as high as $200ish. Biggest concern I see is the roof and canvas (Can you get new canvas for those things?). Are you up for rebuilding the roof? The rest needs a scrub brush, upholstery and some tlc.

Check for major water damage especially around the roof lift mechanisms. Depending on the amount of water damage it could be a fun project IF you don't mind the work.
