I quite agree with Alex the build quality on most older cameras were far better than the new digital throw away bodies, let face it these days if you have a problem with a camera that has been used for more than four years the repairers just say “A non economic repair.”
Mostly all the older 35mm bodies require is new light seals fitting, a very easy job to do.
I do miss my film cameras, Contax/Yashica and the medium format twin lens bodies, but having moved to the “retirement bungalow” no space for a dark room.
