Chad n Jolene, you probably already know this but I will say it anyways, in my 44 years of experience with motor homes and camper trailers,....this is my thoughts. If the top back left is separating like he said then this most likely a structural problem, these vintage campers mostly used 2x2 wood for the framing ( structure ) of the walls and often the roof as well, a common problem is water infiltration due to lack of proper maintenance. Every 60-90 days you are suppose to go around the RV and look at the joints and check the condition of the sealant, many people neglect to do this especially around the roofs edge, thus as you travel down the road and the RV moves it flexes ( this is normal ) however the joints will move back and forth a little and thus eventually the seal will fail and this is why it has to be checked often and resealed or repaired BEFORE it becomes an issue. SO water must have gotten in over time the frame in that corner is compromised aka: ROTTEN and thus there is no more structural integrity and that is why it is separating and actually allowing more water to infiltrate adding to the problem. either the exterior or interior wall will have to be removed in that area and the wooden frame will have to be repaired, sounds bad but everything is fixable, just depends on how much time and money you are willing to invest fixing it, CAREFUL consideration should be taken as there is a high probability that there is black mold behind that.
Yup it's not what most people don't want to get into. I don't think Chad wants to get into a big project like that. Like you said anything can be fix, but buying it and then getting deep into fixing it I can't see it being worth the money and time. I seen video's where people tore campers apart and restored them. They might as well just have built one from scratch.
Imagine the mold in the walls? My sinus are running from here!
@@butziporsche8646 yes and it just grows if the problem don't get resolve. Next thing they know is having mushrooms growing out the wall's.
You are all being to nice. That thing is garbage!
Right run from that . 😂
Hey Chad I had the same exact Winnebago motor home 20 yrs ago . and the only problem I ever had with it was vapor locking if the temperature was over 90 degrees . it would shut off going down the road and I would turn off the key count to 5 and start it up and drive but never even slowed down much lol. It would go 10 or 15 miles and do it again , after 10 times of that I got the idea to wrap aluminum foil around the fuel line right at the front of the carburator, squeezing it tight to the metal fuel line and it never did it again. but those motor home's have character unlike the flat fronted giant windshield vacation boxes they have now.
Good tip! Did yours have the 318?
in the 1970s one of my Uncles was a Executive for Xerox and he and my Aunt used to go Camping a lot they opened up a Rental Business in the Washington, D.C. area for RVs and they bought a Fleet of those Winnebagos they used to drive one to New York to visit family and my Dad was always amazed on how much Gasoline cost them Gas was usually about .30cents a gallon and i remember one time my Uncle put almost $80.00 to top off the fuel tanks
Great to get out and about and see these cool old vehicles
This would be so cool to have EVEN just parked out in your yard ...you two sitting outside on those nice summer / fall nights around this Vintage motorhome / under the stars & patio lanterns . It would definitely add to all the already cool vintage decor in the yard for sure . Beats a sea-can storage container for the 😎 factor lol
OMG! Brought back some great memories! We went to Alaska with my parents in 1992 in their ‘72 Winnebago. It was a 24 foot with a 440.
Love your road trips. Nice break from the shop.
Love your road trip . Seems like people in NS have all the old cool stuff ! Can't wait to see what's next . Keep up the good work Chad , Jolene & Fina
Always enjoy your road trips. Thanks for the ride along Chad and Jolene.
Even if you two DON'T buy this cool 73 Motorhome ...then look for possibly another vintage one ...i don't think you will regret it if the price is right .
I own a 69 Dodge motorhome ...most ppl would say it's uglier than sin ...and actually that's how i felt at first about it . But it's ugliness slowly grew on me & i don't think i would ever part with it for the low price i got for .
It runs well & i would never think about any long road trips with it EVEN if gas was 99 cents a liter . Most of the time it's parked in my treed in yard ....and I love just chilling in there some days ...and some of my best sleeps are in that motorhome of mine .
My guess is that they covered up all of the water damage and rot with the barn board interior no toilet or sink or heat system
Love the road trips.
I saw one of these flip over once near Woodstock Ontario and it popped like a balloon. Belongings and debris were scattered everywhere.
Thanks for bringing us along. Thanks for the hard work you two
I always enjoy your road trips, very interesting vehicles. Bill
All i can think of is Breaking bad. Great work Chad. Love your content
I have that lamp, and that cologne bottle the shape of a winnebego, and a tonka winnebego for good measure. And, a rust free 82 toyota factory rv that has a 4cyl that gets the best mileage for a rv. It's the backup plan if the house burns down or the zombie apocalypse.
I wonder how much of the levels dettuce was partaken in inside that winnebego.
You just know that alot, is the amount.
Good to see you and Jolene have a day off👍
thanks for taking us with you
I can remember having that same big toy camper as a kid and sitting on it and riding it around.
Despite some roof repairs ...it will be a cool place to hang-out / chill away from the house / shop . After ALL those hard work days ...Relaxing next to the RV around a fire-pit 🔥 outside with family / friends ...it don't get MUCH better than that !! BUY IT NOW lol
Brings back fond memories
Winnebago is cool, great to tow your cars to shows 👍
I remember when those motor homes were very popular.
Looks like a bunch of roof work to me, maybe not right now but at some point. Your first heavy snow fall will cave that tin roof in no problem is my guess, unless you are going to replace it or reinforce it. Good luck
They did reinforce the roof with 3x2 from one pillar to the other x3
That thing is really freakin cool.
Run, run far.
I think it’s pretty cool merchandise wagon and put a big rig chrome shop bumper on it for Jolene and a Train horn 😎💰The Merch Money Wagon 🚌🎲
I don't think I would like this too much. With the changes made to the inside it may bee too top heavy.
Look cool with air ride kit on it
another great video thanks guys
I'd be scared to buy the RV with it's past history of leaks. Dry Rot can do big damage...
Chad,Did you get the bumper back from being chromed for Elvis
Thought this was same car as the brady bunch wrong, very cool wagon, awesome stuff cheers 🍺🍻🍺🍻 KC Cradle Mountain Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺🤝🇺🇸😎👍
I want the Bodcat!
I've had those already, this one looks like it needs a lot of work to be really nice, but, I'm not the one who is buying it.
That vehicle would be a challenge to make Bad Chad cool.
Interesting find!!!
That van would so darn cool for Jolene i can see her decorating it and making it hers
Nice break from the action 🎬...roadtrip....the inside of it very cool..love these older rigs...bobcat wagon...pretty cool 😎 👍...thanks for taking us along chad and jolene..cya tomorrow
It will work for that very well. The gas mileage will suck. Thanks for sharing
gasoline is a write off for their business!
@@markwheeler8041 way the prices are it will help greatly.
mine wasn't that bad because it had an 318 in it, a big dodge truck with a 440 in it burned more gas than my motor home just like it.
I think a Barth motor home would be a good merchandise show room and they have a look that fits your style.
Love the interior
Over all it's a good video something a little different. The 2 word's of the day is Warped Board's. even at the drive threw, if someone ask how I am doing, I will say, feeling like a couple warped boards. He got me when he threw in what he did at the hardware store. Good Job Bad Chad and Jolene.
Howdy, don’t chop the roof too much in the Winnebago! Hope you guys are having a fun trip
The ONE thing I did notice Chad would change to the interior is take down the old Coca-Cola sign & replace it with a vintage Pepsi sign hahaha
I don't know how they allow them on the road when they are new, theres nothing to them structurally. Unless you plan on welding a box and building it over, its just a bunch of composite board , thin plywood , tin and gorilla glue, mostly gorilla glue. When you find one that looks decent, it has been parked in the same spot for 30 years, once you go down the highway a 100 miles it will all come apart. It's great if you are going to park it in the driveway and sell out of it , put a rubber roof on it . I wouldn't plan on going far, or often with it.
Now That's Entertainment, Boys !!!!
so rare now they're a hot commodity gets those running & driving great and they fetch good $$ in the states
if anyone can make good from this motor home , i can guarantee chad and jolene can , with chads amazing fabrication skills and jolenes design ideas
That’s pretty cool!
Put the hitz sign on 🤑
That RV has a filon roof. Similar to fiberglass. Since it has been leaking, there is most likely rotten wood at the corner of wall and roof. Most likely will need rotten wood replaced then resealed.
This thing is not worth the time it would take to repair it. Not even close. Chad is probably just trying to be polite to the kid.
Good evening jolene and chad hope you had a wonderful weekend and thank you for sharing it with us
Would like to see it customized Bad Chad style.
I love what he did with the inside.
No air in the tires can't be good for them. Those rims got to be cutting into those tires.
Kool old Winnebago motor home!
Neat on the inside.
Yep ...can see it now ...Jolene & Chad sitting outside this cool Winnebago around a fire pit watching movies on a projector screen ...
So repair the roof / decorate the interior as you like . Hang some patio lanterns outside , set up some chairs ...be a GREAT place to even take some You-Tube videos with the gang hanging out in the evenings .
Nothing as cool as a classic Winnebago!
That old camper is nice and I like Jolene's idea. 😎👍
Maybe you need some work and make sure no water gets in. It's probably weighed down a little by all that internal wood, but it doesn't matter, you don't have to go around the world.
Greetings from Switzerland
We are currently renovating a 1978 Minnie Winnie Winnebago. It's so much fun!
If it runs and drives OK and is solid, it could be a good "merch-mobile".
I’m thinking the same thing 🏆👍🏻
After seeing the video, I feel that this project would be a "money pit". I would search out an older "potato-chip" van or Divco milk truck... something with aluminum body or all-steel construction.
Great job
This thing is pretty cool! Would love to see a Volkswagen Westfalia restoration
Put a pt pump 5.9 Cummins in it and get 18 mpg.
How did the suburban get crashed?
I have a 78 with a 440 she needs lots of but coming along . Mines 28” long 6 bran new tires new brakes all the way around . That old tin looks good and I bought a piece of rubber roofing for mine , it’s nice but mine will blow your mind when it’s all done
Very cool camper,tons of potential...gut it and start from scratch and make sure it's right
I like how that guy has redone the inside
two tons of added wood. must be heavy as hell.
None of mine or anyone elses bees wax what the owner is asking ...but hopefully not too MUCH .
A lot of good comments here why NOT to buy this ...but again if it is basically going to be parked & driven on short road trips ...maybe it's worth buying 🤔 ... for the 😎 factor & a neat place the store the BAD CHAD / Jolene merch 😊
Wow camper van is this the next build
I hope not!
I would love to buy the bobcat wagon, please shoot me some info please.
Chad looks so overwhelmed in the motor home 😳😳😳😳. Sooo many options 🤯🤯🤯
Road trip. Should be an interesting visit.
Don’t generally like to negative, but finding parts for these older Winnebago are difficult to find replacement parts for them here in the US. Especially engine parts.🙏😎
Winnebago should be taking notes on next design offerings, even the cherry bombs, love it.
Jolene wants that Bad Chad flexible chrome on that bumper
cool! awesome!... thanks 4 video. be kind.
Run Don’t Walk from this bit of Lawn Art!
Home sweet home love the mini winnie love the original style look would be fun for family tripping to find a house 🏠 currently house hunting but newer RVs are priced so high in today's market
Hey Chad. Not sure about this one.
We have a 1973 Superior 25 ft.
33k original miles. Stored inside for 32 years. Went thru it mechanically and it’s great. Superior is all Steel Frame Construction. Galvanized exterior.
Kinda Ugly but it’s cool.
Enjoy your Shows.
Wow a pinto wagon is sweet plus and old school Winnebago great content , tires flat they are ruined
these are cool little bago,s .nice rims and cherry bombs sounded beefy thanks as always guys
I like the old maroon station wagon. The Mercury wagon they were already getting smaller not my style. Most people don't have bigger families today for the big wagons.
What's up with the rolled up Levis , Chad ?
Goes with the flat billed cap.
We need some of those cool old cars in the states. Send us some chad. LOL
Just seen this on market place
at this present moment I want a HILTZ hat.
this channel is my only daily watch!
mine too
I saw a guy who got the longer version of that RV, he kept the cab part but cut off the rest of it and sealed it in and made the rest of the back into a flatbed for hauling cars. So he can go to races and still have a place to sleep of his own!
WinNObuy O fun project but I don't think so 🤔 . Thumbs-up Jolene 👍 and 👍 Chad great content
Joellen rolling closet great idea put out under a open carport next to the shop
Would be easy fix for the rooftop cool looking log cabin look inside
sunday funday get it bought and have a summer road trip
A nice body style on that winnebago.
Ohh no fabrication today Chad doing some great old school fabrication can't wait see it finished
nice for Jolene merch
The Mercury Pinto is very KOOL never seen one like that The Winnebagos is Neat
