A friend of mine gave me a 1984 suncrest. I am 61 and live on a limited income and will be homeless soon. My daughter offered to fix the RV up for me. It has a newer refer and microwave and my daughter put in new carpet and vinyl. The roof is cracked and leaks quite a bit. She put a tarp over the top and the water has stopped coming in. The walls do have some wet rot but I am hoping to be able to live in this thing for a year or two until my situation changes.
I do not know how to hook the rv up to electricity. I have looked all over the exterior and can't understand how to hook it up to a electrical outlet.Hmmm.
any help?
