No wood frames, no lamination to delam. All aluminum framework like my Avion. The big concern to look for is electrolysis, just like the Airstreams.
The pre-92 Alpenlite has a single sheet of aluminum for the roof over the back 2/3rds, and the front 1/3rd is part of the fiberglass front cap.
The concern there is the sealing. clean up the old caulking and re-apply the expensive self-leveling sealant.
