I have the opportunity to fix up a 1976 Midas RV. The RV will cost me nothing allot of cosmetic work. Seems like it would be a fun project. I've been looking for a RV or camper for a family of 3. Question is it cost effective to rebuild or buy something that is ready to use.
thanks

Sorry if this sounds the wrong answer, but only you can answer that. The unit has a nice price, but the work, Can you do it or are you going to have to pay someone else to do the work? I would say if the rest of the coach is in good shape and you know that for sure and you can do the work yourself,I'd say go for it. I wouldn't have done the work on this coach if I was not doing the work myself and had a couple of friends to help out here and there with the heavy stuff. I wish you luck with your progect and if there is anything you need to know, just ask. Welcome to the forum, Capt. Dan

I'm lost. I've gone to look for me. If I should return before I get back, please ask me to wait.
