Sadly, after major tenant damage, my Sunflyer must be hauled off - no interest from wrecking yards or ads. Trying scrap metal dealers, for possible cash; how much of a 1980-2000 Sunflyer is metal? somehow I thought the whole thing was, walls, floor and ceiling.
 
There is an aluminum frame in the sidewalls and roof, the chassis frame is steel as supplied from the chassis manufacturer.

Sorry your Sunflyer is headed to that big RV park in the sky.
 
Mostly just the chassis it rides on and the associated engine & transmission. The RV body, e.g. roof & sidewalls & floor have very little metal. Ditto for the plumbing. There is a fair amount of electrical wiring, but probably not enough to be worth retrieving. A scrap yard would probably just rip the body off. but doing that and disposing of it may cost more than the leftover is worth.
Try an RV salvage yard - they may be interested in the salvageable body parts & appliances.
