Hi,
I'll pass along some that may help that I have seen other club members do when selling a camper with known water damage.
First off, I would leave the try and sell it for parts as a last resort. Pending the buyer you find, they may be looking for a complete intact used camper that they can fix up to make it more their own. Some may want it for a hunting camp, others want to fix it up and tow it etc.
First and foremost, be honest about the water damage. The buyer will be glad you mentioned this verses trying to stick them with it. The selling cost will need to be in line with the camper age and condition and then the water damage.
A new buyer will need a clean title of the camper passed to them. Not sure how they sell campers in CT, but if the new owner is out of state, they may need a notarized title and bill of sale to be able to register in their state. This all starts with you having the title all clear to start with and the camper VIN matches the title. There have been innocent errors found during the for sale time that killed the deal as the VIN was goofed the day the prior owner titled years ago. Point, check the VIN.
I myself have bought 4 wet campers, all from club members. Yes, I'm a collector and I restore them. And at this moment, I'm not looking for another one just yet...
Suggest you post many pics of the inside and outside. And an asking price you feel is appropriate. Tell member to PM you through our forum site so no personal email or phone numbers are posted on the open web. You can exchange the personal info during the PM process, private to only the two of you.
Good luck with your sale.
Hope this helps,
John
