Welcome to the forums.

I would definitely go for the older vintage unit. It will take a considerable amount of time and $$$ to be ready for camping, but will cost less overall. The real question is how soon do you want to camp? The vintage units don't have heated tanks, but the air ducts normally circulated air around the tanks to prevent freezing. Before 1973 there were no grey tanks installed. These could be retrofitted in if you restored an old trailer.

On the other hand, the economy is tight right now, and newer to slightly used models are going for a very good price on the market.

Whatever you decide, we are here to help in all aspects of your decision.
