new sunline owner......

[1979Sunline]

hello, i will be picking up my 1979 sunline this weekend, it seems to be in GREAT shape, with A LOT of work already done to it. i was looking late 80s early 90s trailers but in my price range (2000-2500) and size range (19-27 ft) i kept finding a lot of junk, so when i came across this, i jumped on it, i will post some pics, and the actual wording from the listing itself, i payed top dollar for this thing, but the guy has over 6k of receipts into it.....i hope this is a good choice for me and my family for a few years at our new seasonal site in the adirondacks, were upgrading from a 1969 15 foot holiday rambler due to the need for space and functionality with the arrival of our son....i believe this camper to be around 19 feet? any info would be great.

Looks nice, sounds like the fridge has been replaced with a dorm unit fine if your camping with power but like he said there's a generator that goes with it.

i live in schenectady ny, but my camp is near ticonderoga, ny, between hague and ticonderoga near lake george.

as for the fridge, it is electric or battery only, which doesnt pose a problem due to the fact that i am moving to a seasonal campground with full hook ups this year, i used to be a real camper and camp with no hook ups but with my newborn son here, running hot water, and heating / cooling capabilities for hot days and cold early/late season nights took priority.......i hope i like it, and the new seasonal deal, i am really a rough it kind of dude and thats not really roughing it. lol

Very nice ! We're from over the border in VT, just across from Granville. We're new here, too. Picked up a nice 2001 a couple of months ago. This site has been the source of a lot of info. The members here are great about sharing info !

That looks to be in excellent condition on the exterior for a 1979. Is there any evidence of water damage on the ceiling from before the roof was replaced?

Good deal, and welcome!

Wow, that is one nice looking '79. I haven't seen one that nice in a long time. It's in the "1%" that still have the decals on the front rock guard for the '70s vintage Sunlines.
