Welcome Rick. There is lots of useful information here on the Forums and helpful people too. Many questions abound for buying an older Barth - how long has it been sitting for example or is it in use currently and serviced and owner has detailed records of things like brakes, tires, belts, hoses? Those are the first things to check before setting off anywhere. You should do a thorough pre-flight check on how all the systems are working. Good luck and happy traveling.

check the tires if cracked be very careful of driving on them .also check the date on the tire.take for a test drive and you drive it.the refrigerator check it. Since it is in Canada you don't have to worry about importing it the rest you will have to fix or replace as needed.good luck
