Newbie's 1972 E200

Hey All,
my wife and I just aquired a 1972 E200 Sportsmobile. It needs a few things.There is no battery in the back storage comparetment?? Just a bunch of wires. Anybody in the Temecula area I could hook up with to get me going in the right direction with this rig?? We know nothing about rv's! BTW, I'll supply the home brew.

Thanks

Maybe one of the more tech savvy forum members can help you with the posting. Are you trying to post directly from your phone or did you download the images from the phone into your computer first?

It's a safe bet lots of members are going to be interested in checking out the pictures of your 41 year old rig.

I thought my 89 was old. Welcome to our world. Hope you enjoy the ride. By the way, how much did you pay for your rig?
