Vehicle description
1992 Winnebago Itasca
This RV is a fixer upper. I would buy it again under other circumstances. However. I am situated in an apartment, have no garage, and no available space to put this on to do the cleaning. The other thing, is I am not a mechanic, and I don"t want to pay someone twice what i paid for it, so that I can up-sell this thing.
Lets go over the problems so far:
Its brakes are shot . It might be something as simple as changing the brake fluid. . or getting new brake pads. That"s a relatively easy job for someone who has the room, the tools, (jacks, etc.) and the motivation to get things done.
The inside smells a little . No big deal. . a little cleaning will get rid of that problem.
The carpet is tore up on purpose , because there was a stain under it. You will have to clean the inside nicely and add a new carpet. Won"t cost a bunch of money, but it requires work.
You need to make sure all the electrical works . The onboard generator wasn"t working for me when i was using it, but the wiring is the problem. There are instructions for the wiring on this truck. . and that gauge wire you need. If you"re electricians mister fixer, you might like to take this RV as a working project. I have an old diagram about what the electrical chasis looks like, but you will have to know what you"re doing in order to jump into this project. It"s doable, but it"s not for everybody.
The windshield has a crack down it. You can drive just fine, where it doesn"t interfere with visibility. But i"m sure you can get a ticket inevitably. Best way to handle this one. is to cut out some makrolon. That plexi-type glass can take a bullet, and won"t shatter. You need a cheap frame, and put it into the mounting area. You can do it for less than 100 dollars. (ask me later and i"ll help show you) *This would seem to be the biggest problem to most people. . But it isn"t. It"s way more easy to know that you can fix this if you are bull headed and force yourself to do it yourself. If you listen to other people, and try to buy a branded windshield, you"re already looking at over 500 dollars. You"ll get ripped off if you look in the wrong places. I"ll explain why the cracks happen every time for these trucks. I will help guide you through the process if you want to do this right. . I was going to fix it personally. . but it"s in storage, and i"m not keeping this thing. so it"s going to be the next guys problem. - - - So far thats the bad.
The good is. .
The RV will start. The brake problem will be noticed when you drive it. When that is fixed, it will be stable and road worthy cross country. It has 183K miles. Not very high for vehicles this age.
Its sitting in storage right now. And i have to pay 95/month just to hold it there. I need to get rid of it for that reason. That expense is too much for my budget. I would otherwise just hold it until i can fix the thing.
You can pick this thing up, and make it yours. It"s going to require work. . but when its done, it could be a beautiful home for a couple. Lots of people need homes these days, and haven"t the resources to afford a house. This RV can do that for them. If you fix this thing up, it should sell for a pretty profit.
You must understand. . The way it is now. . it"s not livable. But you need to put hours of work into this thing. . and if you have a few helping hands with you, you can get this thing finished over a weekend and make it a nice liveable truck.
