Welcome Barb!
Congrats on your new Sunny!
Good times ahead.
On the new hot water tank, we can help you locate the right part number of the tank to look for, but we need some info from you to make sure the one you have now is still the original brand Sunline put in, as a prior owner may have changed something.
NOTE: Due to supply shortages, it is very difficult to find a complete new water heater right now due to Covid. However, you asked only for a new tank, they may be available. We can help you look for a new tank, then you would reuse all the other older parts off the heater in the camper now. We can help on how to do all this when the time comes.
We need the model number of the water heater. To find the heater model tag, go outside the camper and open the outside water heater compartment door. Facing the water heater, on your right hand side should be a sticker with the brand and model number, assuming it is still an Atwood water heater.
The tag will look similar to this, just this is a different heater then yours would be.
The tag will look like this, but have a different model number
If the model number sticker is unreadable, then post a picture of the outside of the water heater with the white door down and inside the camper, take a picture of the back side of the water heater which shows how the pipes and any wiring hooks up.
Ideally take and post a few pics of the heater with the door open even if the model number is available. We can see if you may need any other parts that may have been too far rusted and need replacement.
In case you want to add pics, there are 3 ways to add pics.
1. Upload pics to a specific post attaching them at the end of the post.
2. Linking them in from a public viewable web photo hosting service you have.
See here for 1 and 2

3. You can upload pics to the forum in your own personal photo album. Then link them to anywhere in the text of a post. See here on how to create an album.

If you still get stuck, let us know. Pic's go a long way in helping show things you are working on or needing.
Hope this helps,
John
