Need help on 2008 19' scamp

In the process of purchasing a fantastic one owner 2008 19' Scamp. When inspecting it I saw that it had a small patch in the lower floor due to some water damage and the linoleum in the dinette was loose/warped but the floor feels solid when you stand on it. Looking under the seats in the dinette revealed painted OSB with no visible rot or damage. From the underside I see a small amount of discoloring around the repair but otherwise the OSB looks and feels solid.



What has me a little concerned is the shell is sitting in the bumper mount on the left side and has the proper 1/16" or more gap on the right.


Is this a big deal? Should I be concerned?


Thanks for any input.

I'm sure it is nothing to even think about being a problem.
Remember cars have tolerances in thousandths of inches.
Houses have tolerances in 8ths of inches.
Scamps are more "house" than "car" for the most part!


That being said we make a habit of inspecting our Scamp all over on a regular basis.
I even measured my wheel well down to the top wheel lip on both sides before leaving the factory on the day I picked it up new.
I did that so I could monitor axle set and wear.

That was fifteen years ago and I would have to search for that paperwork
