Suggestion:

Take your awl and poke around under all the
windows 
along the perimeter where you can get access. Same
at the door and along the edges of compartments.

Follow all the water lines and do the same thing.
Look for replaced copper tubing and double check 
under and around those.

The name of the game is to find soft spots that 
may signal wood rot.

After reading your several postings, it sounds
like 
you may have stumbled onto a very serviceable
Airstream 
that won't required daily trips to the bank.
