You have to be a bit careful with mobile homes in some ways. I've done some work on one recently and the walls are incredibly flimsy. Wiring does not seem to follow standard protocol either - it's easy to drill through an electrical cable due to silly routings.

Suppose you'll just have to suffer lack of storage and inconvenience while work is being done. Unless you're pretty competant at diy, I wouldn't attempt the wardrobe.

I bet the insulation isn't up to much compared to todays standards, that's where I'd start.
